"Political Correctness" is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end
They did have a 50% off offer going for booking in January that made a room and breakfast at around £80 per night. I think this is still available. Failing that it will mean me traveling up twice over the two days in oder to go.

Just looked at other hotels nearby in the cheaper range. Premier Inns £54 a night and Holiday Inn Express £46.80 - breakfast an add on but are both in the Bath Road, Heathrow, which is just outside the airport, probably only a 5min drive from the Hilton, if it is going to be held there. As I've got further courses lined up for this year, cannot afford to pay over half the cost of this again on accommodation.
Of course, I would like to know that it is definitely being held at Heathrow before committing myself to booking anything.
Cheers
Caroline

Being tuff brits we tend to find 3 degrees to much, heat wise, and so spend a lot of our time in shorts and string vests at this time of year.
Don't forget to bring yours!! :-)
Ian
I would agree with the above - it has been a scorching 6 degrees in Hampshire recently however I would advise you bring a jumper for the evenings as next week is forcast -3 degrees so might get a bit nippy

5 of us have booked on your course for Birmingham in 2 weeks time. we still do not know the location. Any chance you could get the info to us asap as accommodation needs to be booked.
many thanks
Hey CraigThe forcast here in London for next week is heavy snow and minus 5-7 degrees.If you bring your trunks with you Mandy and Bel may take you to the Serpentine , break the ice and you can go for a swim with them
Actually Del, Bel & I are currently in practice for the synchronised frozen heats.

I am sooooooo looking forward to it! - the worst of the heatwave is over --- the bush fires are still burning though; 23 homes destroyed; 6 lives lost; cost the state economy $100 million (link) .... it been bad this year.

I had high expectations from the man himself and he certainly did not dissappoint! A very enjoyable and informative two days!
I came away with at least a dozens threads I wanted to start but I won't spoil it for those still to come!
It was also a real pleasure to meet the familier colleagues and to meet some new ones. Hopefully we'll be seeing some new posters soon, the day had the feel of an introduction to far more learning and discovery!
Many thanks to everyone who attended and especially to Craig!

Clearly Craig has learned everything that all the posters on Arena have been teaching him
As strange as it may sound I think there may be some truth there!
One of the things which was so refreshing and original about this course is Craig's attitude to the science. Here is a Podiatrist who in spite of his obviously VAST knowledge (and experiance) is very clearly still challenging his own thinking and developing his own ideas. Somebody who is quite comfortable to say "I used to think that, I don't any more!"
All of us, i think, (some more than others) need to beware of the mindset that we have "arrived" and come at last to the correct paradigm and have no need to examine new ideas because we are so confident that what we NOW know is correct. Its easy to spot in others, harder in see in oneself and something which will arrest our development individually and as professionals if we let it!
Wow, I was looking forward to the sessions in Southampton before.......now I am REALLY excited and glad I only have to wait until tomorrow
Thanks for the insight............
Wendy
It is your husky, masculine voice that sends us girls into a state of deep relaxation. Enhancing our ability to subconsciously memorise every single word.
