  • I hope to be there on 9 November for Travel Blog Camp.
  • I can't wait to visit London. Hope could go soon!
  • I will be attending the WTM and look forward to meeting up with old friends and new. Accessible Travel is a huge yet largely untapped market, I invite colleagues to send questions to me regarding this market as I am giving a seminar on the topic on Travel Agents Day and would like to address as many issues as possible in the short time the WTM allows. My seminar will be as interactive as possible, no preaching from the pulpit! I am also available for the consultancy networking session the same day. Questions to wtm@disabledaccessibletravel.com (online from 1st September).

  • Visit Britain reports that Scotland is so popular that when you look at where tourists from outside the UK are going, three of the five most-visited cities in Great Britain are from Scotland. Anyone want to hazard a guess of who's on that top five list?
