Influence

 This is a drawing my daughter did when she was 4 years old.  It is her and a friend starberry picking.  Most important to her art was the entry road (black with seperated centre line marking) strawberry sign, roundabout (light green) and car parking area (brown lines) with the cars drawn from plan view.  I just love this picture, clearly she has spent a lot of time in my office asking questions about plans and watching me "google" earth!

If only I could influence people at meetings the way I can influence my children's drawings!!!

Traffic Lady

I was at a meeting today and the client was being introduced to the civil engineer, town planner, geotechnical engineer, but when it came to me... I was known as "The Traffic Lady".  Four years of engineering - square rooting the alphabet to the logarithm of 10 and all I get is "Traffic Lady".  Oh well as they say "It's not what they call you... just as long as they call you!!!"
