Nikonians courses

[mmertens]

Hi all, I was wondering whether any of the Nikon DSLR using regulars on here has ever been to a Nikonians course? My wife pointed out to me that there will be a "D700 in-depth" course in a place not to far from here in the Netherlands in November.
I've had my D700 for around 2 years now, (had a D70 and a D200 before since 2003), love the D700 to bits and consider myself reasonably familiar with the thing. Nevertheless these Nikonians courses seem quite highly recommended by Nikonians (well they would, wouldn't they) and I was wondering whether anyone on here has ever followed one or more of the courses, and if so, what did you think about them? They don't come very cheap (around 120-130 pounds for 1 day tuition) so before I sign up I'm looking to see whether it'd be worth my while and my money.

Thanks in advance!

I think Beano is the only Nikonian here that I know of. I'm an ex-Nikonian ('ON'?) having checked out when they introduced membership fees to use the forums.
