    Well if we're into the arcana of accounting, have you allowed for the non-refundable membership income figures which have to show as a debt in the accounts even though they are not one in reality?
    Blog? What blog...?

        That's pretty much what trying to cancel feels like

              The CC was abolished in January 2019 and replaced by a Members' Forum that doesn't get to ask the difficult questions the CC asked. Prior to that an NDA was introduced and PCG became IPSE. IPSE UK then decided to invest money in an US enterprise, IPSE US that hasn't been heard of since.

              Simon McVicker is now part of Home - BackinBusiness (the Andrew Chamberlain on the panel being the one who recommended the abolishment of the CC)

                  Now, now. Don't be cruel. An artisan cheese maker here, an astronaut there and some single mothers doing questionable MLM schemes is a wondrous achievement!
