Only 10 of us today. Agood half apologising.
We had a change of format and had a general discussion instead of the usual member presentations.
Madeleine said the real estate market was such that extreme care is needed.Do not over extend yourself at this time.
Credit card debt and putting your motor vehicle debt onto your home loan is not a good idea.
We discussed that we need a travel agent in the club. Based on past experience this is a position that does well and meets the members needs.
Next posting will be meeting of 8th May as I am away for a week.
Have safe long weekends as we front up to 2 in a row.

Madeleine's Mixer
About half our members and some of their spouses attended Madeleine's mixer at the hotel in Flockton Street on Friday 18 April 2008. We had a very enjoyable night socialising with each other and catching up with people we had not seen for some time. The hotel has been renovated of recent times and was a most suitable venue for an after work drinks night. Thank you Madeleine.

Speakers Jeff Clarkson and Nicola Cox
Jeff discussed Program Cleaning v Speed Cleaning.
He says there is no real difference. Programming a routine makes it faster. In the book Speed Cleaning you do one room at a time. Jeff has a routine for his commercial cleaning where he basically goes round in a circular motion one task at a time. By having a routine you get greater time efficiency.
Nicola told us what she does when she sees a new client. If you are building she can help you save money. You can use her as a sounding board. She will review your plans and advise on design faults.
She recommends a wash basin in the loo. It is important to work on your colours and also to know the latest products available. She recommends using a kitchen designer. Nicola can save you money on product and she always listens to what you want.
Leads today 15.

Small meeting today with a large number of apologies. 2 visitors from Robyn Clark Dental Practice.
Robyn was our guest speaker.
She has her practice at The Grange. After 20 years in the military she set up in private practice. There are a number of dentists in the practice and they are open 7am -6pm most days.
Her biggest challenge is getting staff which she sees as the biggest headache in business.
They offer services which apart from general dental work of drilling and filling extends to bleaching, implants and cosmetic dentistry. On the subject of implants Robyn says they are not cheap but she prefers them to dentures.
Robyn is also a strong advocate for fluoride in our drinking water.
An informative presentation with Robyn happy to answer our many and varied questions.

Welcome to Jo Werthenbach from PBS
Speakers Jo and Richard
Jo was thrown in the deep end on her first visit by Dave Williams who is now Sales Manager at PBS. Jo has joined the team there after a history in Bread. She is enjoying meeting the challenge of a new job. She comes from Stanthorpe and is enjoying living in Brisbane. Welcome Jo. We look forward to hearing more from you as you get your head around the stationery business.
Richard took us back in time to his first visit to Boggo Road Prison and some other jails he has visited over the years (a nice place to visit but wouldn't want to live there. Probably not even nice to visit.)
Leads today 15 in total, 11 internal and 4 external.
