I can only echo what others have said - everybody who I met and spoke to from the SWPP were kind and extremely helpful. A huge thank you to everybody

I have mentioned him in another post but I would also like to say another special thank you to Ian Rose who, with 20 minutes to go, managed to figure out a solution for me when my laptop wouldn't work with the projector in the room where I was giving my masterclass. This made me a little nervous (to say the least) but Ian stepped in to help by not only thinking of a solution but then finding another laptop for me. I can't thank him enough.
Neil - the kind lender of the laptop was Lesley McGillicuddy. This is the great thing about the convention - everybody steps in and helps each other out. Quite amazing.
Thank you Jane - and yes, I couldn't agree more. The atmosphere and the way everybody helps out is just fantastic. I did thank Lesley and Damian in another post, as they also went above and beyond to help me and I was also really pleased that I got the chance to thank Lesley personally in the bar afterwards but I can't say it enough - so thank you to Lesley and Damian again!
