Last month I was at a market, helping my wife with a stall she runs. It was a lovely, sunny day at one of the biggest NZ markets I've been to, packed with stalls along the main streets and bustling with life. At my wife's request, I won't name the market or out any of the pseudoscience stalls making bad therapeutic claims*.
Our annual conference starts on Friday, and for those of you who plan to come but haven't bought a ticket yet, you'd better be quick. I spent yesterday afternoon with Bronwyn and Daniel, running through a sound check at the venue, testing that the technology works as expected, finalising our catering and trying out our Friday night "entertainment” (we also had enough time to grab a quick beer at the Welsh Dragon bar, our venue for Friday evening's event).
A 'Wellness Festival' provides a couple of hours' entertainment, if not much more
Annette Taylor spends an afternoon checking out the alternatives.
