Power Cut

Normality has been restored today after a power cut yesterday caused havoc with our operations at the bakery. The telephone lines were down all day (what did we do before mobiles?) and production was hampered, causing a knock-on effect on despatch.

Disruption to our customers was minimised thankfully and everything is running smoothly again now!

Progressive Conference

Came into work this morning inspired not only by the speakers at yesterdays forum conference but also by the delegates. It was great to meet so many people with that passion about their own business. Having the opportunity to speak to people who have 'been there and done it' was a real privilege. Being 5 yards away from Elle Macpherson wasnt too shabby either!

Congratulations to the Entrepreneurs Forum for such an excellent, well organised event.

I've played football with Greg for a few years and it doesn't suprise me at all to see him shortlisted for a competition like this. I wonder if he rallies his staff in the same way he rallies his team mates!?

Greg was a fellow student at University in Newcastle, and the burning potential in him was always apparent. Im so happy to see he has managed to put to use the endless hours in the lecture halls at uni and of course is happy in his home area in the North East, well done! From personal experience i can say how much of a difference it makes when you love your job and have a passion for it, Greg with this attitude can take his business to great places.

Good luck Greg!

Greg has created and saved a number of jobs on Tyneside that would otherwise have been lost - one of the benefits of new businesses that is often forgotten.

Nathan Saunders
Greg is a young entrepreneur with and old head (business wise). He packs drive and passion with plenty of vision.

And I feel for certain, Greg will go far in building a very successful business portfolio.

But on top of all that, Greg's a top guy!
