Gearing up for the big ones

There are two speaking conventions that I never miss. The PSA, here in the UK is an obvious one - particularly this year, while I'm President. It's on the 7th to 9th November at the Forest of Arden Marriott near Birmingham, in case you hadn't noticed. There will be masses of enlightenment, and bags of entertainment. I guarantee it will be worth every penny of the ridiculously low fee (only £495 plus VAT for the whole weekend, including all hotel expenses, if you book early).

The other, of course, is the National Speakers Association in the USA. This year it's in New York from 2nd to 5th August, and I have been given the honour of presenting on the youth programme. What a treat.

Actually, now I come to think of it, I had a great time in Canada, Netherlands, Australia, Kuala Lumpur and South Africa too. I really don't want to miss them either. I should have got a bigger passport.
