Paul Williams - The Saturday and Sunday were understandably light on business meetings for the group as it's... the weekend. FYI Robert Loch / Paul Carr etc are not part of this trip and are not attending any official meetings or tours. If you'd like to peruse the agenda, you'll see it's all open and transparent (and I'd ask to you name a similar tour with as much openness) http://webmission08.com/agenda.html Frances Style - Skimbit CEO Alicia Navarro is on the trip (just not visible on the bus) and Cary Marsh Co-founder of Mydeo was invited but couldn’t come so Co-founder Iain Millar came instead.

Well read this unofficial blog http://alljustwords.blogspot.com/ by Paul Carr. So far we have Robert Loch telling dirty jokes and getting drunk with his co-founder Scott. Most of the focus seems to be which party to go to next and which singles event can they attend. I am sure the stripbar trips will not be broadcast by Paul Walsh using Qik. I think what Ollie Barrett has done is a good initiative, so well done chap but I will wait and see what the outcome of this taxpayer jolly will be. My bet is a big fat zero.
