Walking wounded!
Things are now starting to come together for this week's papers - but there have been a few Monday mishaps along the way.
The newsroom resembled something like a casualty ward earlier with content editor David Tilley not feeling his best and then reporter Tom Parnell arriving with his arm in a sling after a mishap on his bike over the weekend.
On top of that two of the major stories we had planned suddenly started to collapse - not helping David on his road to recovery.
Thankfully things are now starting to fall into place and we look to have a cracking exclusive story for the front page of the Uxbridge edition.
There are also some strong stories for our other three editions - Hayes, Harefield and Ruislip and Northwood - all of them likely to be strong talking points in those areas.
By tonight we will have completed the back end pages of the paper and then tomorrow morning will be working on the major news pages with the usual race against the clock to ensure they hit their deadlines to the pre-press department.
