The booking procedure asks for name and, if a MoneyAM user, login name. I don't know if name cards/badges will be used on the day, but, if they are, some people might not wish to have both names displayed on the card. ie: they might prefer to remain anonymous. It might be worth stating, therefore (if the names are likely to be used together in that way) that people may omit their userIDs if they wish any ID cards to carry only their real names.

Al, you're being kind. Adam has just come off the "Star wars" film set. He was Princess Leia's body double.
20 minutes on FX trading made easy? This has got to be a wind up!

Tom hougard is a cowboy. His charting is hit and miss. Over-rated!

StonyB,
We ask for both of those pieces of information, just for administration purposes behind the scenes, so we can keep a record of who is coming for ourselves. Name badges are usually supplied at our traders days as either the username or the real name - not both.
No decision has been made as to whether name badges will be made for this event, however, if they are they will not include both username and real name - just one or the other as per above.

Hubia, he inspired the Concorde method the single most sucessfull trading method ever designed, in fact its more an entire philosophy of life rather than just a trading method.
But he is a great presenter funny and informative, for what its worth i dont take any notice of him either but he is worth watching live.

It's very important, if you're asking him questions, to try to get him to use the words 'popup' and 'upload'. Makes me giggle, anyway.
:o)

ravey,
Why not suggest a place to meet and a time?
Anyone that can attends then has a meeting point.
A bar (if there is one) might be a handy place!

There is a website here
Upper Street, Islington that shows all of the premises nearby, including a couple of potential meeting places close to the Business Design Centre....
I'm afraid a lot of the names along the road have changed since I last spent any time in that part of the city, but maybe one of those better situated can suggest what would be a good place to meet up....

Supermums right, there is a nice pub just opposite called the York, but upper street is a great place for food and drink anyway - there is a wide choice from your traditional pub to your swanky wine bar to suit all needs, so I am sure we can find something we all like within easy walking distance for some liquid refreshment after teh event (although it will get a little busy on a Friday night)

There is massive train service disruption on the Thameslink services north of Kings cross. Trains from Watford, Hatfield and UG seem to be ok. Bedford luton ST albans Kings Cross are a NO Go

Was anyone sitting on the edge of their seats during the business angel presentation?
Otherwise a good day, particularly in the afternoon when each of the speakers seemed more batty than the previous :-)

Kayak... I WAS on the edge of my seat... when I fell asleep....!!!!
Like you.... I thought the rest of the day was good...
I thought that Finspreads missed a great opportunity with their new platform though... i know they dont do demos... but why didn't they have a penny account open to show us all how the whole programme/platform worked...
very poor research imo... I may have gone back to them...
