First there were breakfast meetings-

and then there were training days on Saturdays and Sundays, but at least we got fed.I have had some first class lunches on training courses. I also remember about twenty years ago being served scones with fresh cream and jam, on arrival at a course! The recession has kicked in; I have had one of those weeks, two  cpd courses, both starting at 12.00 noon and running over lunch time,one course finished at 4.00pm, there was no food ! No sandwiches! Has the world gone mad? I know I lost weight this week.At least in the good old days of the breakfast meeting there was a fry -up waiting to send us  on our way.
