That's cheap price you've stated infact, take a look at one I'm
considering going on:
http://www.paulmckenna.com/training_courses.html
All some upto almost three grand. Maybe it's worth it, I'm not really
sure, but the creator of NLP is there!!!
It seems to me that you're putting alot of effort into making this
work, as I can only imagine to be "Out of the goodness of your
heart". I hope you make a small profit on it (you deserve to!)
Unfortunately, as you know I won't be able to attend, and I'm really
kicking myself about it....still!!
Thanks anyway, maybe next time huh??
