Yeah I'm going. My friend and I rang the place for some info, and he sent us stuff in the mail, and it says pay at the door. Does that mean we just turn up??

It's at sydney uni next sunday. It goes from 9:30 i think until 4, including a lunch break. The cost is $44, and you get a booklet of notes, which are approximately 50 pages, although I'm not sure about any of the contact details. I'll post them up when I find them, but if you want more info, maybe you should see a teacher at school, coz thats where I got my info from.

Umm..there is no website, but this is the phone number:
(02) 9452 2088. My friend called them, and ended up leaving many messages on their answering machine, although, in the end, they did get back to her. It's probably best to ring around 3 - 4 pm, if that's possible. Oh, and I have an email address for them: acattain@bigpond.com. Hope that helps :)

Hahahah you can study in the car if you really want to. How far away from sydney do you live, if you don't mind me asking.

The notes better be good, because I could be doing heaps of work in that time!

I know this is a little late...but does anyone know whether we have to fill registration forms out, and post it to them before the lecture, or do we just turn up?

So what did u guys think about the lecture?
Personally i thought he was reading off the handout a bit too much, but apart from that it was pretty ok
