Group is dead?

Hi,The only messages I've received from this group in the past 3 years have been SPAM, so I assume the group is basically dead and it's time to leave the group.RegardsMickContinue

Won't be able to make that meeting, can the next one be in the evening?

Hi Thomas: We used to have evening meetings and scheduled this meet-up for the morning at the request of some of the members. Will see how people feel about evening meet-ups. Is evening generally the best time for you?

Hi Anne Marie,
I guess if you run an online poll then you will find out, but I expect weekday mornings could be divisive since some people (no idea what ratio) would be at their 9 to 5.
Thanks for your response.

Thanks for the idea of an online poll, Thomas. Will try this approach after tomorrow's meeting.

Looking forward to meeting you soon,
Anne Marie

Enjoyed the proactive meet up today. A lot of good contributions to help further business networking (thank you Sharon), co-operative tendering and resource suggestions.
