Hold onto your hat since you will be zipping around at high speed for the next two weeks at least. More short distance trips, extra correspondence and encounters will keep you oh your toes. You may not manage to do much in depth or details but you will certainly not be bored. The recent fraught atmosphere in certain friendships or team relationships seems to have come round to a reconciliation of sorts. Now you know you need to be quietly honest on an ongoing basis otherwise the tensions will build un again.
