Insolvency…..and plenty of wine!

On 26 September 2013, we hosted two great events in Manchester.

The first was our annual Insolvency Seminar held at Bruntwood City Tower in Piccadilly Gardens, where guests enjoyed panoramic views of the city from the 24th floor. Now in its 7th year, it was once again an informative and well received update of current insolvency issues faced by our clients. Guest speakers included James Morgan, Marc Brown and Matthew Weaver from St Phillips Chambers.

In the evening we hosted our first wine-tasting event presented by the knowledgable and entertaining Charlie Womersley (charliethewine.com). The evening consisted of a delicious choice of cheese and teams competing to guess the grape and origin of 8 cleverly disguised wines.

Of course, as is traditional, a spittoon was provided to each team, but I do not recall the use of a single one…as is also traditional in my view!

I am very pleased to be able to say that my team won the wine battle (I admit that I was only the scribe) and the team at Freeth Cartwright would like to say a very big thank you to all of our guests for spending such a fun evening with us.

The winning team!

We look forward to hosting the next insolvency update and our 2nd wine tasting evening next year – watch this space!
