Voice Gone

Well, that's another 2 day Primavera course over with. And, again, as always, my throat's all sore and dry :-(

It's one of the things we brought up at the recent Train The Trainer course we did. Interestingly, water is the best preventative measure. Coffee, apparently, dries the throat, as do most other warm drinks. So taking that advice I've been drinking probably twice what I'd normally sup in good ol' H2O :-D

It's helped a little, certainly by the end of the first day's training my voice hadn't completely given way. But what is normally a quick second day turned into a long haul. Sometimes the student's just get it straight away, and everyone starts using Primavera and speeding through the workshops no problem. Today however, it took just a bit longer on each lesson. We got there in the end, and 10 more Primavera users walked out the door and back to the desk. It's quite fulfilling, teaching, although I'm glad I don't have to do it every single day. For a start, I don't think my old voice would cope. Imagine, an Al who can't speak... ;-)
