Hope your group enjoys it as much as you and I did! Thanks so much for dropping by. I really appreciate it.

I am not sure which is funnier, the dialogue between Michael Palin and John Cleese or what happens later when Palin storms out of the room and unintentionally attends a “Being Hit on the Head” lesson.
This will make a light hearted way to introduce the subject of a staff in service I will be facilitating-”Managing Conflict in the Workplace”. thanks again!

I’m embarrassed that I didn’t catch that myself – I’m anal-compulsive myself, particularly when it comes to matters of spelling and punctuation. Consider it corrected!
