Famous bankrupts, past & present

maxmycardagain

TV presenter Anthea Turner’s husband has handed over his property empire to a bank, becoming the latest high-profile victim of the credit crunch.
Grant Bovey’s Imagine Homes, once Britain’s largest buy-to-let business, has been taken over by HBoS.
Mr Bovey, 47, is now just a consultant to a new company called Imagine Homes (UK), which is responsible only for selling and marketing the property empire he once commanded. He has been left without a financial stake in any part of the business.




So he is now a consultant to the new company which rose like a PHOENIX from the ashes of his old company which he ran aground then?....


is he dannyboyracer?..................pmsl

Companies House aren't the quickest of places to up date their website.

Suspect the administrators will be looking closely into the waived director loans and payments when making a loss.

I came home to an airing cupboard full of tortoises! However some of them look like they've had unfortunate accidents - comes of not being vetted, I suppose.:D:D:D

Hmmm mine look more like road kill, I don't think I quite have the hang of it either

I have to confess - I have Anthea's book on how to be a perfect housewife:rolleyes:

If anybody wants a read of it -pm me.

Though the warning is - you feel exhausted just reading it!

I have to admit - I've been tempted to get Anthea's book on how to be a perfect housewife! For OhDear! He's the house husband at the moment, and frankly is far better than me at tidying and hoovering!

This is just an excellent example of the difference between a personal BR and a Ltd company stitch up, neither of em will lose a penny, hes still trading (as a "consultant") and shes still trading, i wonder who lost what (as suppliers)

JCS1, don't suppose we can persuade you to start a Housekeeping Tip of the Day thread, can we? Just the really important stuff, mind, like the guest towels.
