I could be persuaded to attend a particularly prestigious conference "UK BLAWGERS 2008" Any thoughts on this.

It would be good to have an annual conference again... this year... tradition of one conference?.... doesn't sound too good. A. annual conference should be ... well.. 'annual'. I can help if you wish... with publicity... emails...and underhand threats.... but you may prefer to take of method three yourself? Apologies for, yet again, going off piste and not contributing to analysis, reflection and adding to the sum of human knowledge.... I blame declining standards and those PCSOs taking my hedge into custody. They have still got it. Apparently, my hedge is going to be extraordinarily rendited - secret flight at Luton - Diego Garcia and then on to 'somewhere' in Europe for a bit of waterboarding. Well... there we are...
