Weekly meeting review from Kevin Radford
With our regular blog writer unable to “perform” this week, we “recruited” a guest author Kevin Radford to entertain us with his take on our weekly networking meeting.
Happy Halloween from Essex Business Forum
Happy Halloween from the not-at-all scary members of Essex Business Forum
Waistcoats are to be this winter’s fashion statement
On a sartorial note, waistcoats were in evidence. This harbinger of winter also gives the blokes a chance to make a style statement. Kevin Brookes, back from a hard few weeks holidaying, sported a very fetching garb that was beautifully set off with his brown wool look waistcoat.
The lunatics were taking over the asylum!
For a variety of reasons our usual, highly illustrious leadership team were all absent from the meeting so things were bound to be a bit different this morning….
Droppage can be perfectly acceptable in the right hands
22 sat down to breakfast and so the meeting commenced. There was talk of droppage and Scott Griffiths went low-tech with his (apparently!) 40th 10-minute presentation to the group
“You don’t know what you don’t know”
A much improved turnout showed 23 Members in attendance braving the darkness and the fog. A lively meeting with an impressive presentation from Matt “Laminate” Barry
The Naughty Corner goes global
Word must have got out that it was my turn for the 10-minute presentation, numbers were down to 18 and no visitor dared show his face. Notwithstanding, when the darkness had been driven out by daylight, we had a beautiful clear sky and bright sunshine. Those of you who did not attend missed a very lively and good-humoured meeting.
The Piggy is back!
A whimsey-free meeting with 21 members present and 1 guest. New member Rupert gave an interesting first-time 10-minute presentation. First time for us, he’s clearly an expert at this kind of thing!
