I see that patients can go to the Medics session in the morning , in reality do any of you go or is it better to just attend the afternoon session .Is there any chance to meet up with any of you from the forum ,it would be nice to put faces to names.

Hi Fi

I shall be there, and almost certainly not attending the medic session in the morning.

I've not managed to speak to Jo yet to arrange anything formally. So

I shall be there around 11am, and in or near the Thames Suite, as I understand there is a Coffee lounge there that we can use to meet and chat first.

As Bob started it, and he's given me permission to carry on I shall wear a pink carnation so you can spot me, and if anyone else from the forum wants to wear one I am sure it will be an excellent "icebreaker"

By the way, I look like my photo :)

Oh No mate you are much more handsome! Seriously. last year many people found the medical side rather OTT and over their heads. In fact Jo asked me if I could manage a coffee morning for early arrivers but as I can't make it this time Ian is taking over. Have a great time.

We attended the medics morning session last year and found it fascinating. If we do go again this year we will definitely attend the full day. The whole agenda looks helpful. Give it a try and make a day of it.

I am very interested in the ablation talk at 11am and wonder if Ian you could make 10.30 when the morning attendees seem to have a coffee break? If I don't see you all in the morning I will look out for any pink carnations at lunch time!!
