It went really well, thank you for asking, there was about 15 of us. most ordered food when they arrived then started chatting and networking once we finished eating we got going, I have found on previous jams that no one wants to be first to get out the balloons, to over come this I stated of with a game I had a bag with names of different thing inside not complicated models things like dog, cat, bird, sword, gun, dinosaur and so on they had to take out a name and make a model, worked really well plus it showed what level we were at, Helen's dog was great as was Balloon Dr's dinosaur.
Next time the challenge will be hats:)
The staff and customers at the pub were really impressed and left with the balloons we didn't want and business cards.
My only problem I guess is that I didn't learn anything new but had a great time teaching and networking, the next 1 will be in July.
I know Helen took some photos, I was so busy that I only got some of twisters twisting, so will ask her to send me some.
Also plugged this forum:)
