No - I've got my daughter this weekend, but it's the sort of thing I will be showing my face at in the future, possibly with students in tow.

Must have been a previous incarnation. I have neither time nor energy to be bad this time around!

Yes I am also attending and like Tim W have a 10 min slot on Sunday morning discussing our marketing successes and failures - My failure slide is a lot bigger than my success one

Robyn you are too modest, from what I see you are doing a very good job.

It's going to be like ''Loony Tunes'' on a Sunday morning with a hung over audience

Take home message?----
1) Alcohol is extortionate at these venues
2) Things move very slowly in research circles

Highlights --- couldn't divulge the best bits but @neilo got a mention and @George C gave a great performance (even managing to wake up dozing academics )

Ah well, number 1 doesn't affect me as I only take a small sherry at Christmas anyway. I'll have a look at the presentations viz a viz number 2.

I definately agree re research and I would suggest that many of the ram breeders present are responding so eagerly to market signals because they are seriously at the sharp end of the industry

A tad unkind methinks and no I did not but not a lot over. 10 mins seems a very long time when listening and frighteningly short when speaking and you have lots to say.
