Brilliant!

Well last night couldn't have gone better. The first meeting of 2007 was well attended and there was a real buzz in the air. Some new faces came, along with some old ones.

It was quite hard to get around everybody for a chat but between my WBa partners and I we managed to speak with all those who attended. Everybody is already looking forward to next months meeting and ALL the newbies said they would be back.

Some great discussions were had. The support side of the meetings really emerged this time with people talking of problems they were having and others offering possible solutions. Anthony Peake sold another 2 books, fresh from his success at his 'Borders Bookstore' book signing last Saturday.

The meeting went on until just before closing time and the last of us didn't get home until just before midnight. It was well worth the effort though.

We are looking forward to seeing everybody again in February.

Happy New Year

Well this year has begun really well - I started with a stinking cold on New Years Day. At least I should be fine by next Tuesday for the first meeting of the year.

Hopefully all the meetings for 2007 will be as good as last year if not better. I've had confirmation from a couple of new people of their attendance. I hope to see all last years businesses too.

Hope you acheive all the success you deserve over the coming year!

Stuffed!!!

Well the Christmas meal went really well. Lots of food was eaten and plenty of drink flowed, non alcoholic for the drivers of course.

Ideas were bandied around the table and the world generally put to rights. The new website (http://www.wirralbusinessassociation.co.uk) was discussed and of course this new blog!

Everybody is looking forward to the New Year and the next WBa meeting.

Christmas Dinner!

The Wirral Business Association will not be having a December 2006 meeting. Instead some of the members will be meeting to enjoy a purely social Christmas meal on Friday 15th, at The Chimneys.

Anybody interested in joining the meetings next year should contact me and ask to be included in the mailing list. We mail out twice a month with details of the next meeting and news of new developments within the membership. Oh, and we don't pass your details on to ANYBODY else.

The Meetings themselves are free to attend. The only cost to you is a drink from the bar!

Welcome

Hi everybody.

Welcome to the new blog for the Wirral Business Association.

Firstly an introduction:

The idea behind the Wirral Business Association is to get lots of small businesses together once a month. These business people can then offer support to one another and hopefully do business together.

It is a very informal group meeting at the Chimneys, Hooton (Wirral). We meet on the 2nd Tuesday of each month and the next meeting will be on January 9th 2007.

If you run a Wirral or Chester based business and would be interested in coming along then please contact me for further details.
