Frugal friends meeting 8th october Bristol
 |
Well we changed the name of our social meetings and had our best turnout to date. I thought I,d drive the 160 miles as the train timings would have left me waiting at Paddington station for nearly an hour and coming back I needed to be at the shop by midday.So I set of at just after 1pm and had a clear drive all the way in my trusty 15 year old car and arrived at 4pm. Debbie[Soulgrowth] arrived at about 5pm so we grabbed a coffee and sandwich in an outside cafe near the hotel.We had a good talk and I was left amazed at how up beat and bubbly Debbie was despite still waiting to see if she would avoid bankruptcy. |

| We moved back into the lounge area of the hotel and the next person to arrive was Vanessa from film121,she does most of the filming for IVA.co.uk tv and had travelled by train from London.Tony Parsons[welshboy] arrived next,looking very smart,and it was good to meet him again especially as he has not been too well recently.He looked the picture of health mind you and was soon chatting over a coffee. Mike Burridge[mikebdomain]arrived next,with his colleauge Jamie from Leybridge. Mike couldn,t wait to dish out his free pens and settled down once he had done this !! The three mortgage guys soon got into heavy conversation regarding the mortgage market.Surprise of the night was John Tegg[coveritall] and his wife Gwen turning up.John is a former bankrupt who has bounced back and built up a very successful insurance business.He is going to launch a cover for IVAs in the next few weeks and it sounds great. Vanessa filmed Debbie,Tony and myself during the course of the evening and the meeting wound up at about 10pm.This was my fourth social meeting and each time it seems to get better and better.Conversation is so easy and covers all areas of insolvency. I guarantee that you will not be disappointed when you attend these meetings. Look out on the forum for the next one,12th November,location to be decided |
