It is always a little nerve-wracking walking into a room full of people, as I did last year arriving at Cybermummy two hours late thanks to forgetting London is not actually a small village that can be easily navigated.
This year, with lessons learnt, and remembering the uplifting atmosphere of last year’s event, there will be no need for any last minute nerves and stresses over what to wear. It’ll be a relaxed event, an opportunity to catch up with old* blogging friends and meet others for the first time.
No need for nerves whatsoever. It will all be absolutely fine.
But hang on.
At some point between purchasing my ticket (thanks LittleDodo) and forgetting that this will be a huge monumental event in the entire history of blogging as we know it, I have agreed to speak at the event. Thankfully not a ‘standing-up-in-front-of-400-people’ situation, but sitting on a panel in front, I hope, a significantly smaller audience.
I am sure it will be *relax, deep breath, calming thoughts, imagine them naked* absolutely fine.
I’ll be on the blogger activist panel talking about blogging and charities, and no doubt mentioning Cameroon at some point, clinging to with my adopted blogging sister Sian (aka MummyTips) and Liz Scarff from Save the Children.
It’s an afternoon session so feel free to take a very long lunch, wander out for a brief look around the shops and treat yourself to coffee and cake. I will happily provide you with a short summary of our talk later, in written format, cutting out the need for me to say a single word.
See you at Cybermummy!
*Not old as in ancient, just to clarify.
