@TheHybridDBA You know what’s even more character building? Supporting that code 6 months down the line...

Great evening at the Canberra Microsoft and Power BI user group tonight - special thanks to @ExceleratorBI for giving an excellent session on DAX as a Query Language!

[Jim McLeod @Jim_McLeod]

@venzann Could do! We’re just at the supermarket finding dinner, but will be walking past again in 15 mins

[Jim McLeod @Jim_McLeod]

@venzann Did I just see you grab food out of a car and head back into your office? #notstalking

Finished #sqlsat754 #SQLSatAuckland we had 350 registrations and 285 turnout. Thanks to all speakers, volunteers @leila_etaati @indupriya9 @sqlpass #powerbi #sqlfamily

[Jim McLeod @Jim_McLeod]

Final session of #sqlsat754 of the day, watching @the_d_mp making his #sqlsat debut on the topic of Power BI Custom Visualisations - and doing a fantastic job!

[Jim McLeod @Jim_McLeod]

Listening to @TheHybridDBA presenting at #sqlsat754. Only took 4 SQL Saturdays for us to not be speaking in the same slot!

@Jim_McLeod building custom visuals #powerbi #sqlsat754 #SQLSatAuckland

[Jim McLeod @Jim_McLeod]

It’s a great turnout for #sqlsat754 #sqlsatauckland. If you’re stuck for a session to go to at 09:30, my Custom Visuals in Power BI one would be a great (if biased) choice!

I’ve been in New Zealand for 3 days and my Australian accent has started to revert back to my Kiwi accent in unpredictable and amusing ways.

[Jim McLeod @Jim_McLeod]

How can one single breakfast in Auckland remind me of so many things from my childhood in New Zealand?

[Jim McLeod @Jim_McLeod]

@GilbertQue @sabmotta @TheHybridDBA @kellybroekstra It was a fantastic event - Perth did itself proud! Thanks for having me!

[Jim McLeod @Jim_McLeod]

Listening to @rob_farley spoil movies for everyone at #sqlsat761. Amusingly.

[Jim McLeod @Jim_McLeod]

I’m in Perth, and looking forwards to #sqlsat761 It’s a touch warmer than Canberra.

[Jim McLeod @Jim_McLeod]

@TheHybridDBA No chocolate fish? That's the only reason I'm coming to Auckland!

[Jim McLeod @Jim_McLeod]

Sydney, you put on a great #SQLSat771 ! I’m tired and keen to get on a plane home, but it was a fantastic day!

[Jim McLeod @Jim_McLeod]

My mind has been blown by Matt Allington’s DAX session at #sqlsatsydney #sqlsat771 @ExceleratorBI

[Jim McLeod @Jim_McLeod]

Good morning, Sydney! Looking forwards to my first SQL Saturday in your fine city! #sqlsat771 #sqlsatsydney

[Jim McLeod @Jim_McLeod]

@TheHybridDBA @sqlpass I don't know if it's conspiracy or coincidence, but Melbourne, Sydney, and Perth have us scheduled at the same time. We'll have to ask for a swap, because I'd like a chance to see yours.

[Jim McLeod @Jim_McLeod]

It appears that fate and SQL Saturday organisers want to keep @TheHybridDBA and me apart - I'm scheduled to speak at the same time as Hamish in 3/3 events this year!
