To read part 5 click here. Today I discovered that there is something worse than the person who says: "I don't have a question per se, more of a comment" - the fact that there are apparently people who ask questions that take longer to get to the point than the presentation they're asking a question about!!

Day 2: What a busy day - I'm sure it's not always going to be like this but I'm definitely going to have to break today into several posts, so here goes: Post 1: The day started off with a mandatory Covid test, which thankfully came back negative and then a walk to find a coffee shop with Tony from […]
This time last year I had jetted over to the United States as part of the Edward R Murrow Program for Journalists, after having been nominated by the U.S. Embassy in Namibia but having had to wait through the 'Covid years'. At the time I didn't really share too much of the trip on any of Future Media's official channels, but having seen the memories come up on Facebook this […]
