Sounds like CM is a disciple of the Gerald Ratner management school.......

Funny - I was about to suggest exactly the same thing!

He's also swapped a company Aeromax for a Morgan Two as I heard he has become a very keen cyclist. I have huge admiration for people who have the determination to achieve and maintain fitness in their "middle years". So for that fact alone, I salute him!

I think it may have been tweeted by mistake and has since been removed. As it doesn't appear to have been for public consumption, I have removed the screenshot. Seems
fair.

Nevertheless, I think he is right, but best not to make mistakes like that with the Twittersphere, once it's out there it's impossible to go back.

Quite so. I expect some people have copied it and filed it as an interesting historical document...

I am told that he speaks very highly of you, as well.


Bud, I admire his achievement! notworthy

I have tried, but failed to lose the weight I've gained over the last 40 odd years..! When I was 21 I weighed a tad under 11 stone. I want to lose 2 stone and get back to arround 11 stone.

So I think I need to follow his example: be let go by my employer,or retire, stop travelling and eating meals in hotels and get out walking and cycling.

A company expense account can be a dangerous thing....! exting
