Hey Mark, as if by magic an email has appeared... Was just interesting as I know previous events where Nick has been speaking at in the last few months have been subject to controls on advertising prior to the event and restrictions on attendance through advance registration. This was hardly a cunning conspiracy although would have been good for the London members to find out at the same time as you were asked to spread the word. Just a process thing really - let the members know at the same time as promotion starts, rather than 24 hours later. Will see you there.

And as if by magic ... an email from London Region to members has hit my inbox this lunchtime.

It's only just been organised, so I don't know if an email is going to happen but I think it would be a bit knee-jerk to assume that (a) there isn't going to be one, and (b) someone doesn't want people to turn up. After all, if that was the cunning secret conspiracy, nobody would have got in touch with me to say "can you pass on this information", unless of course it's just a remarkably bad secret conspiracy to keep members away :-)

Paul: I'd guess the message is "We've not got much money so we've gone for a venue that kindly lets us use them for free and is well located"!
