I decided to total up what my do total actually is - 14 dos since 2004 And that doesn't count the ones I've been an associate do advisor on, providing help, advice and conference calls on...

These have ranged in scale from drinks for 5, up to dinners for 40-50, to the Mega Do (where we had a great team) to an entire weekend away on a remote Scottish island. Currently, if I have less than 40 turn-out, it's a small do.

No wonder I'm tired!!! It does get easier... and it doesn't get easier.
