Moderately special - Nice of them to not actually tell me who I was hosting until just before I got there! Guess they reckoned I could just wing it ๐Ÿ˜ฎ ๐Ÿ˜‰ And it was this guy - Hector Sants, the FSA CEO: > **[Hector Sants](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hector_Sants)** > > Sir Hector William Hepburn Sants (born 15 December 1955) is a British investment banker. He was appointed chief executive officer of the Financial Services Authority in July 2007 and stepped down in June 2012. He took up a new position with Barclays Bank at the end of January 2013, but resigned from the bank on 13 November 2013. Hector Sants was educated at Clifton College and Corpus Christi College, Oxford. Sants is married to his wife Caroline and has three children. It seems that his family had some past connection with us and they have funded one of our projects which will bear the name. ๐Ÿ™‚ I must say, he delivered an excellent talk, superb delivery, very interesting to hear and the dealings with the invited guests (collection of local business, banking and financial names) went as smoothly as Iโ€™m getting used to. Its actually quite fun to have some of them being so affable - because when I last crossed their paths in various jobs many years ago, they were a hell of a lot less nice to little people! ๐Ÿ˜  Just sat down for a coffee and whilst standing at the counter, a smart speccy woman in her late 20s/early 30s sitting just behind me turned right round in her booth to give me a good look, a big smile and then turned back to the older lady she was with and said in a voice far louder than needed - **โ€œI really like the look of him!โ€** Pity I am bloody knackered and in greater need of coffee, painkillers, food, a stiff drink and to rest my sore foot till tomorrow when Iโ€™m working with Duncan Heath - who is Michael Caine/Maggie Smith/Daniel Craigโ€™s agent and I have to fit-in a rather attractive plant biologist along the way! ---

Today I am starting on what is certainly my biggest event ever - One of the biggest scientific events in the UK, expecting around forty thousand people from today to Sunday night. And because my foot is still hampering things, Iโ€™ve been given just one part of it to run. The second largest/most important group of venues in the event - Oh gawd! ๐Ÿ˜ฎ So far, its three drops A314, one drop each split between temples, side of neck and wrists. With one spray summer Ammo, for scent as much as anything. So far Iโ€™ve been touring round my venues, which include a large gothic hall, a medieval chapel and a large, modern auditorium, oh and the Spiegeltent, if any of you know wht that is. Which has appeared on the lawn! [http://www.spiegeltent.net/index.php](http://www.spiegeltent.net/index.php) ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/pheromonetalk/original/2X/5/556e39f70c411c92c602857775e461bf16268395.jpeg) ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/pheromonetalk/original/2X/f/f36b53fb2035f665a181a20eb4a353e4df857f28.jpeg) Initially, because I missed the big pre-start meeting yesterday, Iโ€™ve been wandering round the venues introducing myself to the staff - Some of which I already know but many are hired-in/new to festival work and nobody has questioned my being anywhere or stood in my way whenever Iโ€™ve gone somewhere restricted. Which is surprising and I have also missed getting my ID/accreditation - oops! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ Most of the events today are low-key but building towards the weekend where we have some of the most stellar names in science and scientific media booked to appear. ---

Hopefully around the end of the year but maybe sooner. I have my pre-surgical assessment on the 13th of this month and normal procedure is this happens three to five weeks before surgery but at my last appointment the Registrar assured me that at the very latest it would be between 15th Dec and 15th Jan. So fingers crossed! ๐Ÿ™‚ The secondary inflammation that has been affecting my shoulder these last few months is also almost away - Iโ€™ve got nearly full movement back and very little pain, with no sign of joint damage, so Iโ€™m feeling pretty relieved. And the rest of the day went reasonably well - most events went off swimmingly and a colleague and I spent our lunch in the company of a smart and strangely accented chap I found wandering lost in the site - turns out he is a senior scientist for a major Canadian hydrocarbon operation and the only real upset of the day was when a major petroleum geologist and an environmentalist got into a standup row that was beginning to look like turning into a fight - in full public and TV cameraman view. I had to step-in and defuse it. So day one survived, more to come tomorrow! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ ---

Iโ€™m having another WTF moment! - Iโ€™ve been invited to dinner with some of the high-ups from this event and the company includes a Government Minister, Head of an Oxford College and the broadcaster Prof Brian Cox! ๐Ÿ˜ฎ ---

I still donโ€™t know how to write that week-up. Apart from the responses suggesting we had an huge success - one of the main organisers took me aside at one point to tell me how the last two hosts either failed miserably or provided only a very basic service compared to what we provided. and this is just one of the bits of follow-up that has popped into my inbox: > [@](#): > > The Team had to bid for press conference slots during the Festival โ€“ along with all others โ€“ which we did after liaising with researchers and identifying strong, media-friendly research stories. > > We managed to secure a total of **22 press conference stories** out of the 30 that were announced at press conferences that took place each day of the Festival. This was an **unprecedented amount** in comparison to that which has been previously been secured by any host for previous Festivals. > > The press conferences took place daily at the Festival and were attended by national and international journalists from media outlets that included _The Times, The Telegraph, The Independent, The Guardian, Financial Times, Daily Mail, BBC Scotland Radio/TV, BBC Online, The Scotsman, Press Association, Naked Scientist_, ABC Radio in Sydney > > This is only a very small selection of coverage and does not include online, broadcast and specialist coverage which is continuing to come in via our media monitoring service daily, together with requests for interviews with some of the researchers. And a majority of those twenty two came from the part of the festival that I was running! ๐Ÿ™‚ I stuck to three drops A314 and one spray [Summer Ammo](https://a314.com/product/ammo/) throught, usually transitioning to a more sexual signature with variously, NPA, AE or more Summer Ammo as the days events wound down and the more social evening parties etc started. And the webmistress for the organisers took a right fancy to me and we spent quite a bit of social time together! ๐Ÿ™‚ And I had my surgical assessment a few days ago and it looks like Iโ€™m facing **yet another delay**. A good few years back I took a bad reaction to a sedation during wisdom tooth work - Despite my never having had a symptom/problem since, I now have to be given the once-over by another department before they proceed! ๐Ÿ˜  ๐Ÿ˜  ๐Ÿ˜  ---
