Simon and Microsoft’s Andrew Fryer at the bowling (Andrew’s got another great picture here.)

Welcome to podcast#35. Simon Harriyott sat down with me to chat about SQLBits, the sessions he attended and Dave McMahon’s spectacular close to his Top 10 SQL Keywords session (a video of this can be found below!) Simon’s other interest, as noted in this podcast are the Sussex Geek Dinners. Simon works for madgex, alongside Jane who also attended SQLBits.

Recorded live after SQLBits, some background music can be heard…and I’ve left one tannoy announcement in for Elaine Marshall’s benefit. That’s more of my comedy genius coming through – can’t you tell?
