    Please can I have a poster, or the link to how to get it.

    Also, I have a friend who may be able to collect quite a few strips but he doesn't live near me - so how do I find out about collection points in other areas?

    Can I ask what exactly is this 80/20 rule? I've seen it in relation to diets (or healthy eating plans as we call them here;)). Does it mean that you have to do things properly 80% of the time, thus leaving some leeway for bad days/days when things go wrong?

    On all the Finance training courses I have been on they talk about the p
    Pareto analysis and say that 80% of your business comes from 20% of your customers.

    But Wikipedia give this explanation:
    Pareto analysis is a statistical technique in decision making that is used for selection of a limited number of tasks that produce significant overall effect. It uses the Pareto principle – the idea that by doing 20% of work, 80% of the advantage of doing the entire job can be generated. Or in terms of quality improvement, a large majority of problems (80%) are produced by a few key causes (20%).
    Pareto analysis is a formal technique useful where many possible courses of action are competing for attention. In essence, the problem-solver estimates the benefit delivered by each action, then selects a number of the most effective actions that deliver a total benefit reasonably close to the maximal possible one.[citation needed]
    Pareto analysis is a creative way of looking at causes of problems because it helps stimulate thinking and organize thoughts. However, it can be limited by its exclusion of possibly important problems which may be small initially, but which grow with time. It should be combined with other analytical tools such as failure mode and effects analysis and fault tree analysis for example.[citation needed]
    This technique helps to identify the top 20% of causes that needs to be addressed to resolve the 80% of the problems. Once the top 20% of the causes are identified, then tools like the Ishikawa diagram or Fish-bone Analysis to be used to identify the root causes of the problems.
    The application of the Pareto analysis in risk management allows management to focus on the 20% of the risks that have the most impact on the project[

    That's really nice though. Lately I've encountered lots of women who have met online, I'm thinking of a girl from work and her mother and baby group in particular-they met through baby forums. It's all been really positive just like MG and Cooltie, yet there is no way I'd do internet dating. (Not looking for a man but if I was). Not sure why really:)

    Forgot I had an idea for the ladies who want to work at decluttering, bit morbid but a good business idea--clearing out the belongings of people who have passed away- I saw that advertised a while ago.

    I have that book too, haven't looked at it for ages. Could be a nice Christmas present idea for someone. It has an inspirational reading for each day of the year.

  • On more plea before I publish all the dates and locations on the website.

    I have two orphan dates:

    Sat 20th November

    and Sat 4th December.

    I would like one of these date to be in London or close too - does anyone feel up to helping me coordinate a session on either of these dates?

    OR

    Does anyone need me to be in their area superquick and would like to bag a date now?

    Back to the site

    Or in practical business terms, 80 percent of problems are caused by 20 percent of your customers...
