Well I had a brilliant weekend. Even though I forgot which day everyone from TM was meeting in the Galleon and had no internet to check! Didn't know anyone and was constantly looking out for a TM badge, hard to look for through the crowds though.

But regardless, I met so many people that I will never forget. Daryl being one of them, such a nice bloke. And Daniel Garcia, if anyway got to talk to him, he is just so damn funny! Arthur Trace aswell, a genuinely nice bloke to talk to and very happy to give tips! The opposite can be said for Mr Blaine who pretty much ignored everything I said, the swine!

Saw loooads of lectures and watched all the close up acts except Etienne Pradier. My favourite was either Jashua Jay or Daniel Garcias.

Oh, and next time I will remember to book a hotel closer to the Winter Gardens. Turns out there are quite a few Beverly hotels and I just happened to pick one that was 20 minutes away!

I had a ball. I took the missus again & didn't touch a deck of cards all weekend. I just didn't feel the need, for me it's all about learning, improving & possibly buying although I hadn't set my sights on anything imparticular.

So glad I caught Etienne Pradier's lecture. He speaks so much of what is in my mind when I'm working & my own logic which I sometimes questioned. Authur Trace was great, as was Rudy Coby & all the rest too. Just watched Etienne Pradier's 2 disc dvd for the 2nd time in 24 hours.

Can't wait for next year.
