Meet your GW team
We love November • John Keats wrote about the ‘seasons of mist and mellow fruitfulness’. Such a famous bit of poetry that it has become a bit clichéd. We should try and update it as we drift into November. Perhaps one of you with a poetic leaning could do something with the other things we fnd precious at this time of year – a new season of Strictly Come Dancing or the frst Christmas decorations (mind you, I saw my frst Christmas tree this year in mid July). Maybe tins of Quality Street? Or offce parties? Think of it as modernising a classic… all contributions welcome.
