    "Ian Barber, the Head of Communications for Barclaycard came to MoneySaving towers the other day, to have lunch. This is one of the ways as a journalist you get to keep in touch and discuss whether anything of interest is likely to come out. However at such an irresistible occasion, the moment he walked through the door, we pressed the button and the darker bit of Star War’s ‘Empire’ tune played out. "

    So how did the meeting go:confused: any tips that you want to share with us ;)
