My Anywhoo's... Im starting to sound like the monitor of all parking 🤣🔊... I'm ridiculous. So anyway, there's no parking near the actual hall. It's about 50-80 meters away. So automatically, it's a schlep 🙄 and my mood immediately flatlines. Really now. 😒. The hall itself isn't too bad. The tech support is a bit outdated, if you positioned at the back of the venue, you cannot see clearly what is projected onto the screen. 😕. The toilet facilities are OK, bit small and cramped, however, clean, well-kept and in good condition. Well so is the rest of the place. Easy to address crowds of 80 pax... Not bad... The Workshop went quite well. So... Please like 👍... And until next time... 😉
