Ever wondered why we “let the cat out of the bag” or “hit the nail on the head”?
The English language is full of weird and often confusing expressions!
This talk will "spill the beans" on the origin and strange stories behind these phrases, so the next time you hear them, they won’t "throw a spanner in the works".
About Alan Jones
I have had the good fortune to enjoy several very different careers; A State Registered Nurse, BBC Journalist, and Clinical Hypnotherapist.
I present talks 8-10 times each month and enjoy meeting and speaking to members of clubs, societies and large organisations, and offer a wide range of topics.
Subject to availability, I am always happy to stand in if a scheduled speaker cancels at short notice.
