Another early start to drive down to the Midlands for a lengthy meeting with pension experts from our brokers, AON, and to interview some companies which are providing the new "stakeholder" pensions. I really need that first cup of coffee. There's a lot to get through so we work straight through lunch, grabbing a sandwich where we can, and then hold an immediate "inquest" before heading north again. Instead of winding down for the weekend I'm winding up for a joint meeting with the executive committee (EC) and full-time officers—We have a 9am meeting arranged tomorrow. At least it's a chance for officers and EC members to exchange views and ideas. Things can get a bit heated and it's a long day at the end of a long week but worth it in the interest of common understanding.
