Networking event

Today I ventured into deepest Buckinghamshire (aren't I brave) to attend a networking event given by New Tricks Training (http://www.newtricks.co.uk/). People networking, not cable networking, you'll be glad to hear. The thought of me doing cable networking frightens me to the core.

The course was excellent and the trainers, Tim and Ken, were both informative, encouraging and entertaining. A lot of their tips were mainly common sense but it's still nice to have the things you'd already thought affirmed. Also quite a few potentially useful contacts met - useful for a networking event!

The thought of cable networking is still bugging me, and reminds me of an amusing quote I saw on Facebook: "I've deleted the file? I've deleted all the files? I've deleted the whole internet? But I don't even have a modem!"
