For those that were nervous about speaking to Wendy, I can confirm 2 things.

1. She is very down to earth &

2. She likes a lager or two ! whistling.gif

It was great to spend some time with you and hubby BTW Wendy !

Hee hee lol!! lol.gif It's a shame you didn't come and say hi as I would love to have some more faces to put to names on here! I understand though - it's like I knew it was Jo in the toilets but as I went up to say hi, a quick thought said 'yeah but what if it's not and you make a fool of yourself', but luckily I managed to ignore it (but hence my over excitedness and rambling) laugh.gif

Hi Wendy,

That was very kind of you original.gif .

I was really pleased finally to meet you, having followed your positive messages on the boards from earlier on in the year, before the programmes were screened, and then the programmes themselves. You did a great job and thoroughly deserve all the messages of support! thumb up.gif

Take care,

Scott

Once again, another superb conference as were the ones at Stirling and Bristol earlier in the year. This one was different in as much as Paul Salkovskis was the main speaker as opposed to Jeff Schwartz and I must admit I find his reasoning more appropriate as I have struggled to get to grips with the four step theory, although it must be said that Brainlock is still the foremost book on the subject.

Hats off to Ash and the team for getting the experts to give up their time, Jo for the excellent presentation and to Wendy, who I would say is the most inspirational former sufferer I have had the pleasure to meet. One day I would like to get to where you are.

For those people that attended the event, we have been given kind permission by the speakers to allow their powerpoint presentations to be displayed on our website. The slides are intended for Greenwich conference attendees's only, non attendees may also view the slides but we should point out that some only make sense when accompanied with the verbal content of the lectures.

Conference notes will be available shortly.

Oh goody, I was about to ask you if we could have copy of the slides. Cheers Ash!

Hi All,

Whilst the conference is fresh in your minds, I would quite like a review or two for the website/newsletter.

Where do you want the reviews? On this thread or pm'd directly to you?

Ashley et al

Brilliant conference- thanks for the stirling efforts of you and the team, volunteers, experts and everybody involved. It must have been an mammoth task and it all went so smoothly, which is a testament to you all. Both me and my wife got a lot out of it and I hope to attend more in the future.

The only gripe I would have which is aimed at myself ! is that I didn't 'mingle' and get to know people, which would have been nice. Still I 'll have to make an effort next time !!

Ash, is there a way to save the presentations so that we don't have to go to the website and follow the links each time we want to look at them??

I don't know what Ashley's answer will be to this question, but just wanted to say that if it's not possible and anyone wants a copy of mine and Roz's then just drop me a PM and I'll email it you original.gif.

Just a thought

I know it's too late this time but at future conferences would it be possible to video the main event and sell the DVD's to raise funds for the Charity? It would have the dual effect of making money and enabling those who couldn't attend to benefit.
