Hello to the Waterside Network Group in Hythe, Southampton

This morning I took part in a weekly morning meeting of the Waterside Network Group (WNG for short) who  meet every Thursday morning at Applemore College, Hythe, Southampton.

The WNG is a really useful group for local businesses which works on the principle that 'we do business with those we know and trust'. Members share their business experiences and ideas and as people get to know one another they may feel comfortable recommending other members when the opportunity arises.

I have been fortunate to have a couple of referrals already via the group, and also looked after a couple of dogs owned by group members which was lovely - a great little border terrier called Finn who loved having a walk with a friendly Westie 'client', and two brilliantly behaved labradors who came to stay with me for a Saturday while their owners had relatives to visit. These two managed to thoroughly wear themselves out chasing balls at Deerleap with me and spent the rest of the day sleeping at my house in front of the fire!

 The group has a new Facebook page - http://www.facebook.com/pages/Waterside-Network-Group/167124176644489

(Special thanks to Focal Pix for setting up the WNG's Facebook page by the way!)

There are some great businesses networking at the group so a look at their website www.watersidenetwork.co.uk with members' directory is highly recommended, if you are after anything from art work to plumbers to wedding dresses, and lots in between!
