they will be back shortly for their night time invasion....... its only half 8 in Dubai..... they r all too busy stuffing themselves. LOL

am fine thanks......... very happy that i have this whole presentation thing in the bag.... have rehearsed it and it went very well........ 15 min time limit though and I am averaging 16-17....... i think i can get away with it.... i can talk my way out of it and blame it on the 30s movie clip i have in it.

Sat here, half 4 in the evening with my window fully open and I am enjoying a lovely 9C breeze. So refreshing.

Now for the announcement b4 the mob comes in............

LOL...you make them sound like a swarm of grasshoppers........

So dubai is 12 hours ahead of the west coast.

Try not to worry to much about your presentation, I'm sure you will do an excellent presentation, but I realize it is stressful....reminds me of having to defend my thesis....even though I knew it really well and the reviews were excellent, I was really nervous.

Sounds like lovely weather you're having.....between you and walla I don't know who's going to get the smack first.

since its my first presentation away from home, thats the only thing that is playing on my mind..... just need to figure out if i shud give them a handout and if I do, what shud I put on it? Just working thru that at the mo.

Did u notice Danny Boys ignore list? and his new signature? LOLOLOLOL

Well, are you havinng slides or whatever with your presentation? Is your presentation able to be understood without a handout...or do you want to place emphasis on certain aspects of the presentations that need a handout - personally for me (with my small brain).....I think handouts take away from the presentation because I'm having to look at the presentation,then at the handout.....and I;m always afraid of missing something.....but only you know your audience.....

The breakfast was wonderful thank you.....good thing I finished before the crowd gets back......

I want to smack you and walla because of the beautiful weather you both ar always having (just a joke)...

well the presentation is being done on powerpoint..... so i dunno if they need handouts really.

u r right...... it might distract them. and plus, I wudnt know wot to give them on the handout...... bit of an extensive topic really.

may do without. I will see..... still time to decide. i dont have to refer to it even if i give them something.

Dunno if Walla thinks his 39C weather is good, but I will be sure to mention this to him.

so wot r ur plans 4 today?
