The scenery is sensational, the food is great, and for the most part the service is excellent.

I presented a mock court case titled “The Case of Andrew Green” at the Synchron Danger Zone Conference.

Court2

The participants were Keith Hanslow (Barrister Ford Lightfoot-Jones) Martin Walker (Judge Hardcourt), Nikki Heald (widow Dianne and Girlfriend Jennifer), John Prossor (Dr Herbert Winterbottom – Compliance expert) and myself as the not so accurate Adviser.

The trial was light-hearted with some hilarious interchanges and a strong educational component.

Last time I came here for a conference the place was hopeless. Poor food, poor service and poor presentation.

What a difference a change of management makes. Taken over some months ago by the Royal Automobile Club of Victoria my stay has been superb. One of the many things that caught my eye is the way they present an iced coffee. It looks good enough to eat.
