"It has been a very useful conference"

Colleagues - Last Thursday and Friday with you really energized me! The energy, our maturing network and the progress we made in building and further professionalizing our work together was inspiring. Bravo to all....especially LASA for continuing to step up and DELIVER! Yes, as Ian will always remind us, without us all it wouldn't be possible, but without LASA...well I think we know what their leadership and facilitation means. In the US it was organisations like LASA that stepped up in the early NTEN days and really made it possible I believe for that network to succeed.

All good ideas encounter problems.... The "almost" live note taking of the Circuit Rider conference has hit a snag or two with internet connection problems. Not wanting to speak too soon but it seems like some of those issues have been overcome and we can now edit pages on the site. So come back and check out the Agenda page (http://www.ukriders.info/conference/agenda) and look at the session notes - some things are worth waiting for...

While i'm drowning my sorrows at the embarrassing exit of The Blades from the FA Cup you are all no doubt spending quality bonding time in Birmingham. See you later !
