Mince pies and
business go together
If you’re thinking about expan-

As things start to ease off in the
run up to Christmas, this is a good
time to review accommodation op-
tions for 2008.
The staff at Basepoint on River-
mead Drive are holding a tenants
party on Wednesday 19 December,
3.30pm to 5pm, and will welcome
prospective newcomers. Drop by
