bald_pig Posted December 16, 2015 Author Posted December 16, 2015 Decided to go on Friday, seems there'll be a better turnout on the friday as everyone can travel from further afield and return the next day
Joanne Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 I've handed in my leave of absence form... gonna push that they need to get back to me ASAP and then I can book train!!
Sagima Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 No more BETT for me My other half won't let me go to London anymore in case I get shot/blown up by people.
X-13 Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 Decided to go on Friday, seems there'll be a better turnout on the friday as everyone can travel from further afield and return the next day That's what I was thinking as well.
Little-Miss Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 No more BETT for me My other half won't let me go to London anymore in case I get shot/blown up by people. WHAT! Why has no one told me this?! I've been leaving my house pretty much everyday! I'm such a fool! 2
Sagima Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 WHAT! Why has no one told me this?! I've been leaving my house pretty much everyday! I'm such a fool! I have to do distance learning as well rather than go to QA's centres for training although that has turned out to be a bit of a blessing - so much better than getting a train everyday and an even shorter commute to work than I normally have! I'd recommend it to all. (I'm allowed to go to Norwich and Cambridge for shopping if I need to leave Ipswich for some reason)
Arreks Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 I'll probably go on the Friday. No more BETT for me My other half won't let me go to London anymore in case I get shot/blown up by people. Not good for me as someone who works in the City then
halbaradkenafin Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 Not good for me as someone who works in the City then RIP @Arreks, you'll be missed. 1
X-13 Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 RIP @Arreks, you'll be missed. @Arreks works in the city... He's already dead [on the inside] 2
GrumbleDook Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 I'll be down on Thursday, Friday and Saturday this year. When not in meetings, I will be on C300 (where Learning Possibilities is on the Microsoft Village) I will also be on the hunt on Friday, if anyone can spot me. #spotthetiger 1
witch Posted December 17, 2015 Posted December 17, 2015 @X-13 FRIDAY. Unless you don't want a witchhug this year? @GrumbleDook Hope to see you this year. You owe me a hug too (What? I like hugging people and this year due to other things going on I will need lots of hugs) @Sagima Perhaps I am being dim, but when you say "not allowed" ? Is there something I am missing?
Devontechie Posted December 17, 2015 Posted December 17, 2015 I should be there on Saturday.. missed the last couple of years
X-13 Posted December 17, 2015 Posted December 17, 2015 @X-13 FRIDAY. Unless you don't want a witchhug this year? Hey now, let's not be hasty. Witchhugs are the only human contact I get. Gotta have a least one to last me the year. 1
Garacesh Posted December 17, 2015 Posted December 17, 2015 I think boss said I'm going Wednesday? I forget
mdrabble Posted December 17, 2015 Posted December 17, 2015 I've registered but with little or no budget to do the things that need doing I am in two minds if I should go this year.
X-13 Posted December 17, 2015 Posted December 17, 2015 I am in two minds if I should go this year. You can go drinking with @VeryPC. #JustSaying 1
CAM Posted December 17, 2015 Posted December 17, 2015 After much delaying I did the 1-click registration. "Just As Planned" For some reason BETT thinks I am a FE Leader.

Sorry for not being clear. My husband says he worries the whole time I am away whenever I go to London that something will happen and asked me not to go again. So, as it wasn't a huge request, I have complied. (There is quite a long list of things I'm not allowed to do) Edited December 17, 2015 by Sagima

mikeprice Posted December 17, 2015 Posted December 17, 2015 uh... That doesn't sound too good. I agree - I used to be in a relationship like that - it wasn't a good idea
Sagima Posted December 17, 2015 Posted December 17, 2015 I agree - I used to be in a relationship like that - it wasn't a good idea The're all little things and keep him from worrying about stuff and they don't really impact me that much. So why not keep him happy? I regret even mentioning I wouldn't be there (but I have been for the last seven years so I just thought I'd mention the chanage ) but I thought it good to bring up the benefits of distance learning over travelling and share what I thought would be a very mildly humourous anecdote about my husbands ridiculous worrying about things. I've been quite happy the last 10 years. Can you go back to talking about BETT now?
Garacesh Posted December 17, 2015 Posted December 17, 2015 Now, now, it's not fair to comment when you don't know the dynamic of the relationship. Everyone's is different Back to BETT stuff, I still haven't made my phoney badge yet.. Hmm.. What to put on it? (I assume, from a technical standpoint, all that needs changing is the bar code?)

john Posted December 17, 2015 Posted December 17, 2015 I'll probably go on the Friday. Not good for me as someone who works in the City then So me and @Domino are also stuffed based on that analogy and we are in a dodgy spot given who's in the massive towers near us!
RichCowell Posted December 17, 2015 Posted December 17, 2015 I'm there on the Wednesday now as well, so will be there on all four days... hope my feet/back hold out!! I'll be on Impero's stand on Wednesday/Thursday, so pop over and say hi if you're passing...
