		<description><![CDATA[Not a single catch, Honest!
As it&#8217;s nearly Christmas, I thought I&#8217;d give away a copy of our two Ebooks.  In keeping with what we do it&#8217;s a presentation skills ebook and comes with a second book of simple presentation tips.
All you have to do is let me know, before the 31st of December, why [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;ve just finished an interview, (live and completely un-rehearsed!), on-air with Chris.  This link won&#8217;t last forever because only the last few days-worth of shows are held online, but for what it&#8217;s worth, the recording is here:  http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00nww67/Chris_Evans_17_11_2009/.

		<description><![CDATA[I know it&#8217;s not quite technically correct all the time, but one of the ways children are taught about where to put commas into sentences is to think about where they&#8217;d breathe if they were saying it out loud.  It doesn&#8217;t work all the time but it&#8217;s a pretty handy rule of thumb.

		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday I mentioned that when you&#8217;re working somewhere other than your office it&#8217;s a really good idea to have one person in charge of logistics.  Today I&#8217;d like to make a quick comment about some of the things that your venue might not provide (despite saying they will).  The obvious solution, of course, [...]]]></description>

Dammit, it&#8217;s a dirty job, but someone&#8217;s got to do it!    By coincidence this was where my wife and I celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary recently.

I like that.

How true.
Public speaking and presenting should look easy &#8211; it should look like you&#8217;re not &#8216;breaking sweat&#8217;. [...]]]></description>

This morning is a &#8216;brain off&#8217; morning and I&#8217;m sitting, vegged out, in front of the TV.  Which is fine, &#8216;cos it&#8217;s showing &#8220;BATMAN; the brave and the bold&#8221;.  (Cultured? Me?)
Batman, of course, is calm, powerful and brooding. [...]]]></description>
