Wow I finished my presentation without getting violently reprimanded. Better go to bed before they summon me back to the meeting. Also laughing at the other poor Singapore based fellow who has to stay on past midnight. Hope you think it is all worth it!!

Glad it was ok today!

@FlockOfCats yeah… i basically came away with the conclusion last year that I would have to just silently accept all and any blame laid on me during these meetings. Or they would ask me stuff I could not explain cos I inherited this and had not time yet to make changes. I really was not looking forward to being asked to attend this again.
