11th March London SUGUK meeting review
I had a nightmare day last Thursday! I haven’t been feeling 100% for a few weeks now and I had a rearranged client meeting to attend that afternoon. That went on way longer than advertised so I hit the rush hour traffic with all the kids leaving school and then I got stuck behind a road accident on top of all that! I ended up abandoning my car somewhere in Sidcup and making a run for the station so eventually made it to Cardinal Place, Victoria just 15 before the meeting was scheduled to start. Big thanks go to Ben Robb and Paul Hunt for making sure the pre meeting arrangements were in place and preparing to cover my absence.
Despite my antics the meeting went really well. We had a great attendance again with 115 attendees and Ben’s first session on Business Intelligence in SharePoint 2010 went down really well. There were some fantastic demos and great insights into how it all hangs together.
After half time pizzas and refreshments all very kindly laid on by Microsoft we had a Q&A session on Business Intelligence in SharePoint. Mark Macrea very kindly came all the way down from Nottingham to join Ben out front to answer questions and they were also joined by a very nice and knowledgeable chap from the audience (whose name I have forgotten due to having the memory of an OAP goldfish!)
We finished the evening in the Duke of York opposite Victoria Station for a well earned SharePint. I made mention of the upcoming UK Tech Days 2010 and SharePoint Evolutions events in my slides which I have uploaded here.
