What a team! Thank you for the cautionary notes for Tim G following last weeks Helium Beer piece. The video is very funny but was, of course, a hoax. Read more about the science here. The original video was released 1 April. Warning: AFKAF has no strict temporal restrictions on April Fools' Day. We want sharp and critical angels. November last year Sharon took FKAngels into Woodhill Forest for an amazing 4x4 experience. She reckons it's time to do it again. "Would the FKA's like to book in for another flying lesson, only this time in another venue that I have created up at Bethells Beach - pretty amazing venue. This time, the angels could bring colleagues along as a way of me exposing our corporate fun days? Angels go free but colleagues are a chargeable baggage! I think a wood burner with lamb smoked with the perfect Destiny Bay Merlot would be a great mid-winter adventure." Sharon took the StretchSense team to Bethells Beach recently. They loved it! Here is the deal: every FKAngel bringing two pieces of chargeable baggage 2x $390  is going free. Interested?  Rudi fWe ran ADI.Clinic this week on Monday in Wellington and Wanaka, then on Thursday in Auckland. Thank you to all the awesome angels who are helping every week. Founders really love ADI.Clinic Ian reports from Wellington an early renting proposition with a great founder, Aaron already has a video. Charlie from Wanaka reports another three sessions with interesting people with different ideas, this month they were all early stage businesses in that transition stage between concept and business.  Rudi reports from Auckland another full house with six sessions, two of them extremely technical, another with an interesting young founder, referred by Datacom's Mark Loveys, in the influencer marketing space. It was certainly a lot of fun for all the mentors! Last night three FKAngels had a dinner after ADI.Clinic Katheren, Rudi and one other. Thank you Katheren, for this graphic memento recounting how one of the three mistook the salt bowl for parmesan with catastrophic consequences.
