[Simon Gerrard]

Mike,
Is that wishful thinking on you're part?

[Mike Osbourne]

No Simon I wouldn't want to see you banned as you have a lot of knowledge and insights on the industry, it's just this one now seems to be going around in circles.

[absolutecleaning]

Simon, What if they are in such early stages that they themselves haven't really got anything to tell it's would be members? Perhaps it's too early for transparency?


 

I think you may have hit the nail on the head there Colin.

Any organisation of any sort surely needs a structure of some sort before going public with any of its ideas on strategy.

[derek west]

[clinton]

Ha sory thought you meant the other clean group 

[derek west]

there is no other
there is only C.L.E.A.N.
TACCA is no more
i've decided not to continue with my hairbrained idea, i don't know enough about the industry to start a new organisation.

i'm gonna concentrate on my own business and become an egotistical money making maniac that way instead.

mwahhhhhhhh haaaaa haaaa haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[CARPET KNIGHTS]

I have built what i would call a thriving and constantly growing business without the need of any asociation and seem to be doing alright!

Don't believe there is any need of a new association. Sounds like there are to many people with not enough work that should be concentrating on there own business and not jumping from one idea to another!

who is behind it, or need i ask is it the clique?

Cheers Goron

[Len Gribble]

Goron

Dose the name of Nick spring to mind 

Len

[Mike Osbourne]

I think the 3rd degree burns on the fingers are still healing, and probably the psychological scars too.

[robert meldrum]

You ARE joking Len ............

[CARPET KNIGHTS]

Don't know Len, to be honest reading this was the first i heard of the new association

[CARPET KNIGHTS]

just spoke to him and it is not him!

[robert meldrum]

I would be very surprised if any suppliers of products or services will be involved as the people behind it are mostly, it seems, anti establishment and reckon they could do better. than existing training providers or marketing organisations.

They may, of course be absolutely correct in their assumptions and it would be only fair and sensible to allow them the opportunity of publicising their agenda for prospects to examine.
