I’ll be attending for the 4 days and even though it is short notice for a 4 day intensive that starts this Friday I hope to see a few of Signpost’s NSW contingent come along
November 21st, 2006 at 2:53 pm
Hey Greg,
write up some reflections and we will post them or link to them. I will be interested in your reflections on Anthia’s input.
November 21st, 2006 at 2:57 pm
Yes, please do Greg. I would have loved to go, but I have other major family commitments this weekend and this is the first I’ve heard of it. I want to know all about it!!
November 21st, 2006 at 3:02 pm
No problems. Does this mean that I’m now one of the inner circle and if people are prepared to give $5000 over and above their tithe they can have morning tea with me and 500 of my closest friends?
November 21st, 2006 at 3:59 pm
You have 500 CLOSE friends?
Wow, you must be huge if so many people can get close to you!!
November 28th, 2006 at 7:44 am
I am huge - and shortly any of you who were involved with the NCLS survey will know what I look like - In the dvd your church recieves there are groups of people doing all sorts of exciting looking stuff - I am one of them! I am the bloke in the black shirt, with a hat on and a goatee. A star is born.
and now…
4 days of absolutely the most brilliant discussion, information sharing and ideas dissemination that I have ever been involved in. And that was oin te trip to the Forge Intensive…LOL really the best intentsive of the two I’ve been to. I will be writing up my notes and reflections and I hope I do the ideas and the people justice.
Phil, Anthea Smitts - WOW - too be working with her and her team would be the opportunity of a lifetime. I can see why you were interested in what she had to say - and what she had to say was well worth hearing. Anyway in a short while my first post will be ready.

in fact here I am on the NCLS web site -at the back of the crowd and again here - how does one person get to be so aboslutely brilliantly good looking and handsome? Can anyone tell me? - It’s a gift I suppose

not sure what I did wrong with the links - but I am that good loking you really need to have a look - but make suire your sittgin down
November 29th, 2006 at 9:46 am
Mmm, good lookin’. You know it is weird when you have a conversation as I did with Alan Hirsch on Sunday as follows:
“Did you meet Greg [insert lastname here]?”
“Yes. He said that he is really Greg the Explorer”.
November 29th, 2006 at 10:27 am
Yeah it is a bit crazy isn;t it when I refer to myselfas my online username - but it actaully does seem that more and more my explorations are what are driving me forward and so in fact I am Greg the Explorer!
The context of the conversation was that I was introducing myself and mentioned that I was a regular poster andthat I was going to be writing up my notes from the intensive and he asked me what my username was!
He is a brilliant man, a brilliant thinker and I felt honored to have been listening to him and the other speakers - Anthea Smitts, Darryl Gardiner, Robin Moulds (streetlevel church Darlinghurst) simply brilliant practitioners and modellers

I have looked at those pictures, I have studied them, and I am fairly certain that you are not only extremely handsome, but that I could choke you unconscious in approximately thirty seven seconds.
