I missed last week’s news letter for two reasons - I was in transit to my first Shiny Side Up talk in New Zealand but a) got stuck in Auckland thanks to the cyclone and b) got stuck on the toilet thanks to a dose of food poisoning mostly likely from a BLT from San Francisco airport. You can catch up with goings-on in the opening segments of the two ‘Elevenses’ shows on Wednesday and earlier this morning. Unfortunately, due to the flooding and damage to infrastructure - including roads - the next two events in NAPIER and GISBORNE are cancelled. I’ll update as and when I can.
I’ll be back mid-March which means the March 1st ONLINE TALK SERIES event is POSTPONED till APRIL. I’ll still be on the road to the second-to-last event at Whanganui. The SOBS talk moves to MAY.
Soooo...
...training. Obviously, I won't be running any courses till after I get back. I optimistically said Sat 18 March for first day for bookings but realistically, I think it's more likely to be that I reopen on Monday 20 March. That way I get a couple of days to get over jet lag.
...Elevenses. I'll be doing my best to keep something going out on the regular days of Wednesdays and Sundays. The optimum time for me to broadcast is 10pm, which means the show goes out at NINE AM UK time. I'll get as many shows out as I can for you.
Once I get back, I’ll not only resume in-person training but I’ve two more talks lined up for April too - the first to Kent’s RoSPA group back in my old stamping grounds near Maidstone. The other is to a very unusual audience in central London. I’ll fill you in on that at a later date.
Make a brew, grab a biscuit and pull up a chair ready to tune in to the 'ELEVENSES' LIVE webcast. Join me, Kevin Williams, twice a week on Wednesday and Sunday at 11am for 30 minutes of topical news, controversial views and better biking tips!
