FRUGAL FRIENDS CLUB
  >Bristol Frugal Friends Club 8th October, 2007
One 160 mile drive later, I was in Bristol for the best turnout to date for Frugal Friends, with Soulgrowth, Welshboy, Mikebdomain, and Coveritall amongst the forum members who made it there to chat.

Soulgrowth was the first to arrive, and we had a good long chat with a coffee and a sandwich. I was impressed by how upbeat and bubbly she is, despite the fact she is still waiting to see whether or not she’ll avoid bankruptcy. Then Welshboy arrived – he hasn’t been well recently, but he was looking sharp and was as eager a contributor as anyone there.
He was soon joined by Mike and his friend Jamie from Leybridge, and the three of them were soon chatting away about the latest developments in the mortgage market.

Coveritall and his wife were also there. It was great to see them – he has bounced back from a bankruptcy to start his own insurance business that is about to launch a cover for IVAs – sounds good to me!

Vanessa was on hand to film a few interviews, and the whole thing was a tremendous success – they get better and better each time.
Hope to see some more of you next time!

The next meeting will be on the 12th November. Location: As yet unconfirmed!
