great ideas arrive at bad moments

Why does a good idea for something to do with spare suiting fabric have to come just before I'm about to go on holiday, with the week ahead of me being fairly full in the evenings already?

Oh well, I'll just have to note down the details for when I get back.

Meetings tomorrow and Wednesday. Curse all meetings.
