Today, Neil Harvey divulges his secrets to effectively communicating with guests before their arrival. With experience in over 2,000 guests hosted and a quarter of a million pounds in turnover, Neil emphasizes the importance of providing clear instructions for guests to find and access the property hassle-free. He discusses his evolution from sending random messages to creating a systematic approach using standard messages and eventually incorporating a video guide.  KEY TAKEAWAYS Consistently communicate with guests after they book but before they arrive to provide clear instructions on how to find and access the property. Create a video guide showing guests how to find the property and gain access, as visual instructions are often more effective than written ones. Ensure important information, such as the video link and essential access details, is placed at the beginning of the message to increase the likelihood of guests reading it. Adapt communication strategies based on guest behavior, such as sending messages earlier for guests traveling from abroad. Utilize creative methods, like limericks or fun rhymes, to reinforce important points and make instructions more memorable for guests. BEST MOMENTS "My mission is to help you on the same journey, which all starts by consistently gaining the golden super host status and the coveted guest favourite badge and all the benefits that come with them." "I have had so many regular Airbnb users say to me, I have never seen anyone do this before. It's so easy to use. Thank you. It's brilliant."  "I truly believe actually that instructions in general across the board in whatever field tend to fail to work because we know what we mean when we write them." "Well, had we had a picture of the piece of art he was referring to the alleyway would have been so easy and immediate to identify and we wouldn't have had the frustration of driving past with traffic behind us on a one-way street." "Problems will often arise from instruction that we devise. What we think that we've said's not the same in their head, so send them a video. That's wise."

Eventually, Neil transitioned to Corporate Event Team Building, eventually founding his own venture in 1999.

We're excited to announce the proud return of a Terminus tradition- a carefully crafted, thematic episode that TDMG ruins with a random grind record. Who would have thought? Before we dive into two contrasting takes on traditional French black metal, TDMG regales us with the tale of Thai grinders Smallpox Aroma's debut full-length, a sub-20 minute record of blistering, oldschool grindcore with a technical edge and instrumental performances worthy of involuntary psychiatric commitment. Over in Europe, though, things are different, starting with the return of the mighty Nécropole (sure, it was released in the last week of 2022, but who's counting?) The half decade since the band's debut record has tempered the style into something colder and more remote but no less ferocious and mystical. Nécropole finds a fine midpoint between the more technical work seen by Orthodox-influenced artists and the chivalric storming of the Antiq bands, making for a record kingly in its disposition but wolflike in its execution. On the other side is Heresie, a young band reaching toward the traditions of French black metal ruralism but with the added bite of early Graveland and some of the meanest edges of the second wave. Deliberately primitive songs thrive on the high contrast of bloodthirsty aggression and aching longing while bass guitar freely floats around the stark, rewilded soundscape. Heresie finds itself in a strange place, somewhere between Pagan Hellfire and primitive CDr black metal of the 00s, but presents itself with a clarity of vision very few can achieve. 0:00:00 - Intro/Smallpox Aroma - Festering Embryos of Logical Corruption (Inhuman Assault Productions) 0:14:30 - Nécropole - Yoga (Northern Heritage) 1:11:57 - Interlude - Lutomysl - “Без вогню провідної зорі (Without the Light of the Guiding Star)” fr.

Thanks for joining us for the fourth and final week in our series, Doubting Christmas!We're not surprised if you have doubts about the Christmas story. The details of the story include a teenager who has a virgin birth, a full choir of angelic beings appearing to shepherds, and a star that guides a group of first-century astronomers to the precise birthplace of Jesus. Even Joseph had his doubts about the story—at first. In the weeks leading up to Christmas, we're going to explore some of the doubts many of us have about the Christmas story and why you can still believe it.

Far from being a modern, internet crackpot idea, hollow earth theory has walked a long and winding path, many centuries old. From the mythological pits of hell, to the pseudo-scientific theories of the enlightenment, right through to modern science fiction, founding philosophies of utopian cults and even tenuous links with the Nazis, the proponents have been many and the theories varied, though whether or not they were ever anything other than crackpot is a different question altogether.   SOURCES   Standish, David (2007) Hollow Earth.

In this episode of Ascension Stories we get to hear from Keneya Moore a STAR LOVER, baker of chocolate desserts, devotee of LM Montgomery novels, loving single mother of three. You'll usually find her sipping tea and reading at her favourite café, singing classic R&B, sewing clothes from vintage patterns, or riding her bike down country lanes. She loves tranquil gardens, talking philosophy and spiritualism, and collecting SHAG art. She has a Master of Arts, a Certificate of Discipleship, and Certificate of Astrological Practice. Her Astrology service is titled Guiding Star…...Why “Guiding Star” you ask? Well, not only is it an apt title for the services of astrology – the best astrologers serve as guides to make sense of the past events of our lives as well as the events that are to come – but it is a nod to the Christmas story, the reason she first discovered astrology. At Guiding Star she offers her own astrology services as well as the services of wellness practitioners such as a Psychic, Meditation Coach, Past Life Regressionists, Tarot Reader, Vedic and Horary Astrologers. "I see myself as a resource to assist people in knowing themselves better – as Plato said it is one of the noblest things we can do. I practice what I call Holistic Astrology, which draws from many astrological traditions, in my astrological practice."

She does speciality astrology lesson series, for people wanting to learn. She also teaches a certified astrology course, for those wanting to become practitioners of Holistic Astrology, or even for their own empowerment.
