Iona College had an open day recently. I was stationed in an English department classroom natch.
One of the DPs who was doing a walk around during the morning said to me something like - "this will be old hat for you, having been a Principal".
I laughed and agreed with him, because by that stage I'd warmed up. "Yes", I said, "I can do shmoozing".
It had taken me a while to warm up because I'm a little rusty at this sort of thing now.
By the time the afternoon shift had kicked in (and we'd got used to the flow of tour groups), I was getting into my hail-fellow-well-met stride.
Funnily enough one family remembered me from last year's open day at Hastings' Boys! I laughed and said, "Yes, I'm working the Open Day circuit."
