Tuesdayitis...Easter Breakfast....

As I usually do every second Tuesday, this morning I attended the Tuesdayitis Breakfast Group, which is run by the Wynnum and Districts Chamber of Commerce. I've always found this group very supportive, and often informative...and sometimes, a whole lot of fun!

So this morning, in keeping with the Easter theme one of our members, Annie Thompson, from Employment Services Queensland, brought along her Easter Basket, filled with Easter goodies, as well as some Easter Head Dresses for us all to wear! Thankfully I was one of the first there so I got pick of the ears!

It was a lovley morning, especially with the added Easter Treats provided by Les and Heather from Michele's Patisserie....mmmm gotta love those Easter Biscuits!


Below are some pic's taken with my phone from this morning's meeting (please excuse the poor picture quality...but you'll get the idea).

Official Member...

The Wynnum Chamber of Commerce had a New Member Induction function this evening, and being a new member, I was invited to attend. It was a lovely evening because not only did I receive my "official member" certificate (framed and everything!), but because I was able to mingle with more like minded, local business people.

During the evening the March Madness Week was also launched. During this week all Wynnum Business owners are encouraged to display their "Mad-Hatters Poster" advertising their "Mad-Discounts". This event is designed to encourage locals to spend locally, and was organised by Deirdre of PaperTrendz, Brett from Wynnum News & Susie Jones (really sorry Susie, I didn't catch which business you represent so please let me know!). During the March Madness week there will be buskers, street performers and music for all to enjoy!

The Wynnum & Districts Chamber of Commerce is rapidly growing in memberships, and I am proud to be a member. And any local business out there should definitely consider joining their local chamber as they provide an excellent forum for business development, as well as an excellent source of referral business.

Until next time...take care...and don't forget to call us first if you need any help with your bookkeeping!

Last Tuesdayitis for 2009...

This morning I attended the last Tuesdayitis breakfast meeting with my Wynnum & Districts Chamber of Commerce comrades. As usual, we convened at the Wynnum Plaza, and this morning we enjoyed special Christmas treats provided by Heather & Les of Michel's Patisserie, as well as handing out our Secret Santa gifts (we used a raffle system...lot's of fun, particularly when a couple of us decided to nick someone else's gift!).

It has been such an honor to be welcomed into this very special group of people this year. I know Advanced Bookkeeping and Consulting wouldn't be where it is today were it not for the helpful insights and support they have given us.

So, once again my friends...thank you very much...and a Merry Merry Christmas!!
