!*FIRSTNAME*!
Welcome to the last TrainerBase newsletter/update of 2008.
Rather that provide business information at the start of the winter
holiday period I thought I'd offer a little ditty that Heather and I put
together; you can tell we are away with the fairies sometimes.
The tune the 12 days of Christmas came to mind; one of those melodies
that seems to get stuck in the mind and drive you mad. Then a thought
about different types of models, instruments and theories drifted into
consciousness and an idea spawned (as they do from time to time); put
the melody and the models etc together. The following is the result:) I
hope it raises a bit of a smile.
