We've got a lot of companies queuing up for September. People are excited about the activity in first quarter and they're trying to get their deals done.
I'm hoping to get out of playing evil incarnate people, and hopefully play more people like myself. I hope people see me as likeable.
It is worrying that companies are applying for licences that cannot possibly be granted. It will potentially waste time and money by people attending hearings when the applicants have no chance of succeeding.
Altogether about 200 people have been employed, not counting others who had been involved in the construction and development work. We have 60 shops at the moment and there will be around 100 by the time we finish.
So much of new knowledge and new applications and ideas come when people from different disciplines combine their expertise or their ways of thinking and looking at problems to discover new solutions, ... If we could begin to do that kind of thing and foster the collective growth in many different fields that we are involved in, I think it would be a lot more fun, as well as a lot more productive.
When the dog goes back to the family, one of two things will happen. If the training continues, the dog thinks, 'Oh, this happens here too.'

Top-notch kid, top-notch citizen. He works hard, and when you work that hard it builds confidence.
There is a simple, three-step way of doing things. Give the dog a simple command - just one word, no rambling on - and explain what you have done and get the result. For example, tell the dog to sit, push its rear down and then give him lots of praise when he does it. He'll get it in the end.
There are fewer quality private companies that haven't gone public yet. As we get into fourth quarter, the number of well-developed private companies will be few and far between.
Rescuing animals is the only way to go.
Star 80 changed my life and my career.
It is always more difficult to win on the road.
