Raak] Do you feel personally developed as a result of your course?

Ooops - re reading that it sounds dreadfully rude - I didn't mean to be. What I mean was ...erm ..well, what is a personal development course?

[Raak] I would love to hear more. When I worked on a national newspaper many moons ago - they sent a group of us on one of those weekends. If I remember correctly, it was a hoot. I'm wondering if 2003 methods are less ... ahem ... aggressively american.

Tonight at 1830 GMT. It was much funnier than the first episode broadcast last week.

[Rab] Usual tme, usual place. I'll be the one wearing a pink mink.

... and I'll be cunningly disguised as a bricklayer's mate.

[Btd] Well, I found it worth while, though it would really be up to whoever knows me to judge the effect, if any. [Chalky] Do you remember what group it was? There are a lot of these things (perhaps less so now than ten or twenty years ago), and yards of self-help books in all the bookshops. I expect that Sturgeon's Law applies. I'll write more when I have time this evening.

Probably won't be along this evening since I've a lot on at work today, what with the three day week and all.

Apologies for uselessness but what's the "usual" time? 8ish?

Alas, I'll be working out in the gym. Then I'm chasing mice and putting doors up.

[Boolbar] If you put the doors up first, you can then shut them and therefore won't have so far to chase the mice. Also (if the mice co-operate) can the chase not be part of your workout? Could you persuade them to run at half-pace for the first ten minutes, then full-pelt for 15 minutes, then a cool down pace for the final ten? It would seem to be the organised thing to do.

[Kim] Surely that should be "his tie is personal"
