Excited to be starting a new role, moving into Advisory and Consulting work

In London and had an hour free whilst near St Paul’s today … so made a conscious decision to go inside for the first time in years. The Dome and the cathedral are just sensational to be in!

Enjoyed being interviewed this week by Kat from Clari at the CRO Summit

New York appears to be one giant Halloween pumpkin 🎃

That’s my weekend of gardening planned …

Getting up at 4am for a business flight does have some perks occasionally - sensational sunrise over Heathrow today ☀️🌅🕶️

[Helen Sutton @HelenHFS]

First time at @IsleOfWightFest this weekend and it did not disappoint! So many highlights!!

[Helen Sutton @HelenHFS]

Well I did go to bed but got woken up by the family instead to see them …!

Spending the day explaining that you didn’t see the once-in-a-lifetime Northern Lights because you simply went to bed instead.

[Helen Sutton @HelenHFS]

Northern lights as far south as Slough last night. 🌈

Iconic view of O2, Canary Wharf from the Excel Marina on a fresh May blue sky morning!

[Helen Sutton @HelenHFS]

Full double rainbow over the station this morning! Stunning way to start the day must be a good omen (trains delayed but hey)

[Helen Sutton @HelenHFS]

Yep that’s April ☀️🌦️❄️💨

[VeryBritishProblems @SoVeryBritish]

I love April in Britain. One minute you’re walking along in sunglasses contemplating getting an ice cream, the next you’re having your face battered to pieces by hail. I wonder what weather will be along next.

[Helen Sutton @HelenHFS]

Week in the ⁦@ardoqCom⁩ New York office started in an unusual way this Monday. Of course we all watched the Solar Eclipse what an experience!!

[Helen Sutton @HelenHFS]

Definitely the classic April Fools day here. Better even than last years one which was they hate tea. Didn’t fool me for an instant.

[VeryBritishProblems @SoVeryBritish]

Microwaved tea is the best tea.

[Helen Sutton @HelenHFS]

@cappucinokid Or bring it over to my house ?

[Helen Sutton @HelenHFS]

All of the above.

[VeryBritishProblems @SoVeryBritish]

List of reasons to have a cup of tea:

-You’ve received good news
-You’ve received bad news
-You’re thirsty
-You’re tired
-You’re cold
-You’re under the weather
-You’re bored
-You need a break
-To make up after an argument
-Because someone else is having one
-To be polite
-Because you’re back from holiday
-Because biscuits are dry
-Because it’s a day ending in Y
-Just because you want one and you don’t ever need a reason so actually just ignore this list

[Helen Sutton @HelenHFS]

I properly love spring. Took disproportionate pride this weekend in this hanging basket I planted last year. Simple but stunning IMO

[Helen Sutton @HelenHFS]

Excited to be speaking at the A-Team Insight Data Managment Summit next week @ardoqCom

[Helen Sutton @HelenHFS]

The annual pancake flipping fail coming up tonight. One day I’ll nail it but I’m pretty sure mine will land on the floor and be eaten by the dog like usual.

[VeryBritishProblems @SoVeryBritish]

Fat, fluffy pancakes soaked in maple syrup?

No thank you! I’m British. I will have thin pancakes, please. Preferably ripped and crumpled after being thrown about a bit, possibly by a child. And I will have some horrible sour lemon on those, please… artificial lemon, ideally, from a plastic bottle shaped like a real lemon. I want to enjoy these pancakes, but not enough to want them again for a whole year.

Much appreciated.
