I would love to meet other Wellington Vbizzers for a coffee sometime soon, but I will be out of Wellington in deepest, darkest, and dirtiest Auckland and Northland until 24th August. You might have to go ahead without me!

I would definitely be keen to meet over coffee. Lets see who else is keen and then arrange a time and place.

Great, hopefully we can get some more interest! It would be good to make it a regular thing.

Hi guys, how about Tuesday the 4th August for coffee? Any suggestions on a good place to meet?

Tuesday the 4th sounds good. I use Ground Floor Cafe on the corner of Customhouse Quay and Waring Taylor, they have plenty of space and is good for meetings. Happy to meet anywhere though. Perhaps a 10:30am meet?

10:30 sounds good, and Ground Floor Cafe. I will also post this in the events section so hopefully some more people see it!

Is anyone keen for another catch-up early next month, say the 1st of September?

Hi folks

Just reading the history - seems like a great idea. I'm not ignoring you - just not in WN (out in the Hutt). Also don't tend to make much in the morning anyway - especially in WN and Kapiti. I had a stroke which was led to a the discovery of a condition which will require on-going treatment.

We had a group in the Hutt - but lack of direction meant it folded last year. Was good while it lasted. Small business can be such a lonely venture at times. But I'd encourage you to develop some level of structure otherwise it's likely to follow our path to oblivion.

BTW I went to a course in WN yesterday (on the new form of partnerships) - no problems (apart from train back being late) - but it was strange being in WN - so "foreign" even though I used to live and work there in the dark ages .

Hi Rebekah

Thanks. Just realised I made it sound worse than it is - I do get up in the morning - just not like I used to. And these days I place more importance than I used to on a morning walk - afraid if I don't do it then it doesn't get done later in the day. So unless one of us is sick - or I have an out of town meeting - then health and fitness now gets a higher priority.
