Yes, please....
Nice one Jim

Just another 'chapter' in the demise of the BNI.

Your measured response to her call and her obvious shock that someone could have a negative opinion on her 'high five' team will hopefully give them (BNI) some food for thought.

I feel that regular contact with SBF members will help you to rebuild your confidence after having been removed from her mailing list.
