Help Shane get to Designertopia

So Darren McCormick the UXE "Role Owner" at "Corp" (see my Microsoft induction training is working) sent a bunch of us invitations to speak at Designertopia in London in February. Thing is, London is far away and costs a lot to get to (not to mention the price of pints). Frank (my boss) says there would have to be a local benefit. To help bolster my albeit feeble case, is anyone in Australia/New Zealand planning to attend Designertopia? Let me know on shanemo-at-microsoft.com.

Please don't lobby Frank directly, I don't think that will advance my cause!
