Just back from Killarney and a very successful Expo at the IPPN (national school principals) conference.  Because of the way it was organised, Thursday was pretty quiet and a lot of us exhibitors were pretty unhappy. But day two was structured better and we had a very busy day indeed.  It should hopefully result in our Francisees getting to see lots of principals and booking lots of shows in the coming weeks.

I can’t put Killarney behind me without mentioning the porridge at the International hotel. It is utterly delicious. As a rule, nothing good for you tastes this good, so I suspect there were added ingredients but I don’t want to know. I urge you - scratch the visit to the Taj Mahal off your list of 100 things to do before you die and replace it with a trip to the International for the porridge.  It’ll be quicker, cheaper, more satisfying and you won’t get your shoes stolen.
