I spend the evening learning how to use Eventbrite®. It is important that I do this, so that I can organise IP Inclusive events without needing to write six spreadsheets and send fifty emails just to get twenty people in a room together. Eventbrite is my new favourite piece of wizardry. All you do is fill in a few boxes and hey presto, you can invite people to something that looks like a proper event rather than a Secret Seven meeting in a shed. The best thing of all is that you can completely make up what you put in the boxes, for instance about the venue and the refreshments and what brilliant speakers you have, because nobody checks whether you are telling the truth or not. So I set up several amazing seminars, two cocktail receptions and an international conference, and I do not get found out. I ask Mr Davies to check that I have done everything properly. He says I have, almost, except for the bits that I have not done at all. These are things I did not even know you could do, but of course once someone mentions them they make perfect sense. After a while, Mr Davies says he is bored and is going to play with his new fishing rod instead. So I am on my own again with the things that make perfect sense except when you are on your own with them. To make myself feel better, I set up an IP symposium and a rock concert in CIPA Hall.
