Excellent evening at the Hoste, Burnham Market, on Sunday evening with a Trafalgar Dinner to honour Lord Nelson on the 207th anniversary of the 1805 battle and also mark the hotel’s own maritime connections with a nod in the direction of Sir William Hoste. I’m told next year’s event is already lined up for October 21, 2013!

Nice surprise this week – just discovered my feature in HRG’s On Business magazine on ‘Time Zones’ has been shortlisted for the Travel Trade Feature of the Year section of the 2012 British Travel Press Awards.

Giving a presentation at the HeaRT EU Conference in Athens on October 15. The conference is looking at various aspects of health journalism and reporting of health issues. I’m currently looking at how the issue of restructuring child cardiac surgery in England and Wales was tackled. See www.project-heart-eu/ and www.europeanhealthjournalism.com
