Day 2 Monday

Day 2 Monday

Another weird energiser for the day which had a ninja style theme to it followed by a very interesting and informative morning about entrepreneurship and how entrepreneurs succeed in industry and how most entrepreneurs come about in the first place like Richard Branson, bill gates and Steve jobs..

After that we had 2 guests from nat West Bank Georgina and ... Who gave a talk on business plans and how to devise the best plan to suit a business and not overload the bank with information when applying for a loan..

Following this in the afternoon a speaker was in to explain how to get the most from social media sites such as Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and LinkedIn this was extremely informative as It gave great knowledge on how to make your profile more visible to the public and have it come up as one of the first few in a google search...

What to say the night entertainment in one word "mad". The Morrismen were unbelievable entertainment, what started off as a bit of entertainment quickly turned into both a session and serious fun I'd go as far as questioning there roots as being possibly irish.... And after they finished there performance we went to the bar for some light alcoholic beverages and some irish tunes :) serious fun had tonight here's for the rest of the week being the same !!!!!!!

Arrival Day

Blog Saturday 12th October

On road for airport at 12pm for the 5pm Ryanair flight from Dublin to Birmingham.. Arrived at airport got through customs less my razor and shaving foam and toothpaste :(.
Flight departed on time and arrived in Birmingham ahead of schedule due to a strong tailwind. On arrival to BHX  met with Gareth who introduced us to the rest of the group and he explained to us where melvurn was located and how long it would take to get to it by train. :)

On arrival at melvurn we realised we were really in the wilderness because we couldent even get an iota of phone signal no matter what we done... :(
