I am selling my dyeable Italian range for just £25 a pair. Take a look on my website www.marshahall.com under the bridal pages for the styles but they are not just for weddings!

A Big Thank You

A big thank you to all those who made theSevenoaks Meeting such a success this week Lots of great networking taking place. It is lovely to see month by month how member’s businesses are growing and how people are finding ways to diversify in these times of change.

A big thank you to Alison Prangnell and Gemma Holmes from Odyl design who brought their own touch of glamour with their beautiful new collection for the more well endowed lady ~ stunning designs and I wish them all the best with the launch of their new website.

Alison and Gemma very kindly donated an eelskin bag for the business card drsw and this was won by Bridget Kelsey of Syntony Image.

Many of you will know, that the meeting on Tuesday was the last one I will be chairing in Sevenoaks so this is a very poignant time for me

I took over the group from Caroline Aitken in April 2008 and it has been such a pleasure to run. I am passionate about networking have gained so much confidence from running the group. I am sure it will go on to flourish and wish it and it’s members every success in the future

Guide to 1230 TWC website

Just experienced Jackie’s guide to the 1230 website, how wonderful, cannot remember the last time I learnt so much in such a short space of time and from such a calm and patient teacher. I would recommend it to everyone!

GR8 call

just spent some time with Jackie and 2 other members learning more about how to promote myself on the website and what all the different buttons mean, and look I have blogged already!

Launching 1230 in the South West

I’ve been happily busy this morning inviting people to the launch of 1230 Malmesbury on July 2nd, at 2a Restaurant, Silver Street.

I’m looking forward to the Malmesbury launch being the first of 3, others to be in Swindon and Bath in September.

I’ve also just had some excellent training from Jackie on how the “back-end” of the 1230 website works, and feel ready to show my prospective new members all that 1230 can offer.

Such a Treat!

to meet up with 1230 TWC Harpenden attendees today. Pretty, interesting venue and great food. Such synergy, great testimonials between those there – come on Girls – share them with us on the web site! Looking forward to seeing your Blogs too after the mini-workshop about using the 1230 TWC web site to promote your businesses.

Mindy the Book Mid-Wife is there next month as Guest Speaker – so I’d advise booking early.

See you all again soon – Congratulations Lesley on a great meeting!

A Big Thank You

A big thank you to all those who made the East Grinstead Meeting such a success today. Lots of great networking taking place. It is lovely to see month by month how member’s businesses are growing and how people are finding ways to diversify in these times of change.

A big thank you to Elizabeth Shepherd, who gave a very informative talk on her work in the field of Dyslexia. She kindly donated a raffle prize of a book about this work.

A big thank you also to Fiona Coppard for the beautiful bouquet of flowers that she gave me today. Many of you will know, that today was the last meeting I will be chairing in East Grinstead, so this is a very emotional time for me.

I set up the group in October 2007 and it has been such a pleasure to run. I am passionate about networking have gained so much confidence from running the group. I am sure it will go on to flourish and wish it and it’s members every success in the future

Warm welcome at Woking

This is more than a little embarrassing … I have been so snowed under since a delightful meeting at 1230 Woking two weeks ago, that I’ve not yet had a chance to share my thoughts with you all.

(I hasten to add that I’ve been on holiday in the middle of all that, soaking up balmy rays in North Cornwall of all places!)

So, first of all – a heartfelt thank-you to the ladies at the 1230 Woking meeting in May for making me feel so very welcome. Of course, a very big thank you to Fiona Syrett, 1230 Manager, who kindly invited me along to speak at their meeting on the subject of Twitter.

With these kinds of subjects, it is always difficult to follow any kind of notes. You just go with the flow. What a flow it was, many interesting questions popping up from all around the room – and just as many to go away with, of course! It was very exciting to be in a room filled with enthusiastic business-women, keen to try something new which may potentially open them up to a whole new world. Thank you all so much for being so open to new ideas!

I was also delighted to announce at the 1230 Woking meeting the new dates for “Tweet Me Gently” workshops, with the special 1230 member price of £25. The next one is being held this Wednesday morning in Wimbledon – we have a couple of spaces left as I type (please see Events).

I left the 1230 Woking meeting with a warm glow inside of me, delighted to have met new contacts who I am sure I will be doing business with in the very near future.

1230 meeting on Thursday at Chislehurst Golf Club

I am really looking forward to meeting you at this Thursday’s meeting in Chislehurst. Most of you would have heard of ISA, Pension etc; but do you know the advantageous and disadvantageous associated with them? Do you know the rules under the Financial Services Compensation Scheme? I shall be giving a brief talk on these; do come along with an open mind, meet new friends and learn from each other. See you there at 1230.

Healthy Product Choices

If you can relate to having problem skin, even if it’s just a persistent patch of dryness, you may want to learn a little more about product ingredients. Take it from someone who has pretty much suffered with every skin condition under the sun, and whose bathroom at one time resembled a cosmetic graveyard. After years of throwing money away trying a plethora of products from the health food store, dermatologist and department store alike, I finally took the time to further educate myself, and the discoveries I made proved quite interesting. Sticking with products that are botanically based, PH correct, hypoallergenic, and dermatologist tested are a good start. Things that I have learned to avoid in products include mineral oil and other petroleum derivatives (cheap fillers), animal products, animal by products, chemical dyes and chemical fragrances. For our babies & children, it is worthwhile to note that many of the “no more tears” products out there contain an analgesic to numb the babies eyes so they do not feel the sting of the product getting into their eye. Lastly, every single person I have spoken with who has a beautiful, flawless complexion always drinks plenty of water. My skin has never looked or felt better.
