Football at DealerExpo 99. We’ve recognised Adam Bardsley, John Donohoe and Cliff Smith, but what was the team?


The late Jeremy Beadle and Maintel’s Angus McCaffery helped us raised thousands for Children with Leukaemia.


Our fi rst ever dealer conference was held on a boat on the Thames. Maybe we should have got a bigger boat!

The fi rst Comms Dealer Expo was at Selsdon Park, Surrey in 1997. There were some racy characters around then!


The famous Comms Dealer Arms at TMA Brighton was always a highlight of the year. Well it was for Jim Povey!


Scott Russell’s Network Europe Group celebrate rapid success in Essex.


East Central Distribution turned a few heads at Comms Dealer Expo ’2000. Can’t think why!


Another football team from Dealer Expo 99. We think it was TSc. Aren’t there Mitel guys in there?


Crane Telecom’s David George and Tracey Jackson meet Frank Bruno at the 1999 Comms Dealer Awards.


Another Scott was present at the awards in 2000. But who is fl anking the Thunderbird?

Tom Fellowes and Justin Orde were very serious about Spitfi re taking off back in 2002 and are still fl ying high.


The Nimans Golf day was legendary in the channel, as were Richard Carter’s trousers. But who are his colleagues?


Harris and Hatcher. Sounds like a fi rm of solicitors but Chris and Martin certainly worked well together.


Ah... James Emm. Is there ever an industry event he is not seen at? An industry stalwart through and through.


Toshiba incentive trips were always memorable and eventful. It’s time to tell all!


OK who can remember the motley WorldCom crew that shook up the minutes business?


Talking of shaking up the minutes business. Tony Lewis was the ultimate mover and shaker.
