Losing your train of thought • excuse yourself • smile • start your sentence again
Expect 3 people – find 20 • never share handouts • ask for a pen and a flipchart • sketch roughly during talk
Dry throat • tiny ball of paper • put it under your tongue • increases flow of saliva • practise first
Drop overheads • joke about clumsiness • pick them up and order them • should number each page
