It's the first week in September - officially the beginning of the “Silly Season”! This is the season in which we go full out here at Legal-Island with one big event after another for the best part of 12 weeks. It's a heads down, third lane (tonne up), take no prisoners kind of thing. Get my drift?
I'm delighted to report that Peter Gilpin has now joined us permanently in the Marketing and Sales department bringing the M&S team up to 5 when Pamela returns. Well done Peter. Great to have you on the Island permanently!
Conference Manager ROI Heather is attending a Volunteer Now lunch on Friday which is on the theme of Time Banking apparently while her northern counterpart Kerry will be attending a Purposeful Leadership course with Toward Consulting on Thursday & Friday.  She will also be chairing the First Thursday Mediation Club on Thursday evening at the Legal-Island Training Centre.
Scott is attending the ST Meeting on Thursday, followed by the Mediation First Thursday Club. On Friday, he, along with Michele Groves of Charis Consultancy Services is delivering training on investigation and discipline/grievance handling to a group of managers at FOLD Housing in Holywood.
I've a busy week of networking ahead. I'm meeting Stuart McClean from Chooboo.com tomorrow. On Wednesday I'm meeting with the guys from Team Solutions. On Thursday I'm attending a meeting of the First Thursday Mediation Club before heading off to an art exhibition at the Waterfront. On Friday I've a day off walking in the Mournes with a friend. Can't wait.

Busy week! Let’s do it!
