ST. Georges Day – England's National Day
April 23rd, 2009
Today, 23 April, is England’s national day. It is an ordinary day – no day off, no firework celebrations etc. However, some people will wear a red as I am today, my favorite colour.
Also as a Yorkshire Lass after yet another busy and successful day at Cavendish Conference Venues , I am going home to this evening for a bottle of Beer and Toad in the Hole ( requseted by my 8 year old son) .
Beer is best, beer is best
Makes you fit, makes you strong
Beer Makes Boney Britains
Beer will stand the test
What did Winston Churchil Say?
Beer is best.
Enjoy !

Investment
April 20th, 2009
There is a lot of talk going around the block at the moment about investments and where to put your hard earned cash etc etc!! Buy Bank shares or don’t as the case may be but they say do NOW as they will go up and they are at as low as they have ever been!! How do I know?? Good question! I know because I talk to my clients and as many of them are in the Financial Services sectors they give me a tip now and then!! Mind you as an Irishman one would think that I would be doing the tipping, but more on the 4 legged Nag-horsey- side of tipping!
Anyway I digress and the topic is Investment!!

Recession
April 17th, 2009
Don’t mention the ‘R’ word too loud in our circle as it depresses some of us! Anyway ‘R’ words aside I believe the conference sector will always hold its own and we all, in the sector, have to make sure that our clients are looked after and they will come back and they will be loyal and they will do events and so keep smiling, be happy and persevere, we will get through the ‘R’ period!

Conference News
April 17th, 2009
Did anybody read this months, April 2009, publication of Conference News? What a great write up from Rob Davidson who is without doubt at the fore front of the hospitality industry and really is so clued in to the changing ethos that is going through the Conference Industry! Rob is certainly a guy worth keeping in touch with and I am grateful for his positive outlook on our industry, we need more Rob Davidsons!!
