Mortgage Expo May 2006 Manchester

Any brokers going to this?

I will be going, I know Andy Smith is going too....

If anyones interested I'm a native Mancunian and know a few decent chill out bars for the evening.

    I could be up for it, maybe a car share, in true MSE fashion?

    Herbiesjp?
    Payless on the way?
    I am a fee charging WoM Mortgage broker.
    I now no longer give information and opinion within the Mortgage boards, because a number of posters who, having approached me professionally, agreed my fee-which has been been made very clear at the outset, taken my advice (normally cancelling a [home visit] meeting at short notice) have then approached one of the fee-free brokers on here to arrange the very same deal I have advised.
    Whilst I totally concur with the ethos of "money saving"- abusing the goodwill of a professional who provides a quality service is taking it too far! :mad:
  • Stoppit I'm going all red ;)

    I think Andy is flying but he does have an 8 seater if he decides to drive. You'll have to book for your pass. I've got the link somewhere, will dig it out for you. Would be lovely to meet you all. I'll be the one in the dinted landrover.

    With new tow-bars fitted??

    Good spot L, seriously it would be good to put faces to Names (and Opinions!!!)

    Anyone else, i would be doing the M1, and if enough happy to be driver.

    Email through website if interested?

    But will we get in the way if we go? ;)

    Cheeky devil, I'm a married man (well as good as).

    Send me that link too Herbs.

    Dave, I am happy to pick you and the others up on the way and drive if you want, either that or I will fly up to Manchester.

    Flybee are doing return from Southampton airport for just over £40.00 inclusive. It would cost me well over £100 in fuel there and back, plus the flight is only 1 hour. May be worth you checking out the cost from Luton or something?

    I am hoping to stay in the Hotel opposite the Gmex.

    It will be fantastic to meet you guys and have a good night out in the process.

    Andy
