Clarifying the Turkey cancellation

by on March 1, 2007 in Speaking

I just want to clarify that the reason I cannot make the Turkey trip not because of anything minor, but a health related issue that prevents me from traveling. I don’t particularly want to go into details, but rest assured I have done everything I can to try and get around this issue. I am really sorry for anyone who was planning to come and see me speak – it really is unavoidable.

    Yeah man, get well soon, I suggest drinking whisky and lemon with a drop of honey. Cures all ills.

    You bloody well better make it to LRL and Guadec this year though ;)

    Hope it’s not too serious and you get it sorted soon.

    You might want to update the “Latest Events” section when you have a moment as it still shows you as being in Turkey.

    I am at the event you were supposed to speak. I heard that you were afraid that you’d catch an infectious disease in Turkey and that was the “health issue”. Is this really true?!

  • jono

    Sakalli – I am not going to go into details as this is a personal health related issue, but no, I was afraid to catch an infectious disease – I spoke to my doctor about my current health condition and he expressly advised me not to travel.

    Hi, I am a fan of “Pinocchio” This year I made a trip to Tuscany and for the first time I was in Collodi and the Park of Pinocchio. I found a B & B close to real economic Park. I suggest it is nice and economical: http://www.lacasadizefiro.it/
