Today we met up for a County PR Meal, not only to celebrate Christmas but to wish our County PR advisor Chris all the best for the future, ready for me and Louise to take over on the 1st January 2008.
We went to Hill House Hotel in East Dereham, being central to the County. Also joining us was the Norfolk County President Carol Bundock, who is a TV and Radio Presenter for BBC East.
We had a Carvery followed by a White Chocolate and Raspberry Tartlet with Fresh Cream, it was delicious but i found it a little sweet for my taste, we also shared a bottle of wine and finished in the Lounge with coffee. It was a lovely relaxing meal, we presented Chris with a photo book of her term in office and a card.
Chris in turn presented me and Louise with a card entiitled
Key Messages for Norfolk County PR Advisors
PR Advisors don't get a salary - not because they are worthless, but because they are priceless!
If you achieve 50% of what you set out to do - you're doing a lot better than the last PR Advisor
Set your DEFAULT font to trebuchet at the outset to avoid confusion
Info from CHQ is there to be read only when you have a free minute or two! Keep a pile by the bed to ward off insomnia.
PR Advisors have the biggest team within Girlguiding Norfolk - 8500 members - so a volunteer is never far away!
PR is fun - enjoy
I thought that was rather nice.
