Trotted off today to check out a venue with a couple of the training committee. Despite all our preparation, great outfits and cheerful smiles, it was a horrible horrible experience.
I won’t go into details cos I’m nice, but I’m pretty sure we won’t be using this venue. I don’t think there is anything we could have done differently.
In an attempt to soothe our bruised egos we stopped at another potential venue on the way home, and despite being told ‘no’ immediately we sweet talked the lovely office lady and she offered to put a proposal before the board at the next meeting.
Time to get writing!
So good you need to share it?

Angela J Williams, PhD, is a writer, illustrator and story teller from Wollongong, Australia.
She is the author of Snakes and Ladders: a memoir and host of the Deboning Power Podcast.
A writer, thinker and yeller, Angela Williams is mildly notorious for seeing problems and pointing them out. She’s tussled with Fred Nile in the Sydney Morning Herald, taken academia to task in the Guardian’s Anonymous Academic, gone to Crikey about the treatment of mentally ill women in prison, and most recently blown the whistle on dangerous risks in her (former) charity workplace. Angela does one thing really well – find problems and yell about them.
