Training

It was a bit of a 'training themed' weekend just gone, starting with Friday when I was running one of the training days through the University of Sydney. The venue for the course had to be changed at the last minute on Thursday as a contractor had drilled through a major power and phone line in the city, putting the hotel that we usually use out of action. In the event, myself and the 18 attendees had to make the journey out to the University area in Newtown instead, which was much harder to get to, but the day went well and we were rewarded with a better lunch than usual!

Most of the weekend was then taken up by some work on a grant funding application to the Australian government, which has to be in this week. I'm hoping to get some finance to support an expansion of my training courses to the other main cities in Australia over the next year and someone had told me about this grant opportunity at the last minute. However, we managed to get a few walks in down at the beach, with the chance to feel the sand for the first time in what seems like ages!
