Welcome to The Updated Scoop! Without breaking any trade secrets, you will find a regularly updated summary of what’s happening with the groups (Well, we will try to write 1 more update on the groups before it’s over and we have with this update!). So, where are we? Basically, the groups have formed, met once or twice or 3 times now, and have established a Company Name (check) and possibly have elected a Managing Director (for the most part)…here is the run-down, school by school, evening by evening, business by business…without further ado, where we stand: Monday Platinum (is the group name)
advised by Handelsbanken (still going strong despite the crisis in
banking) are comprised of Bournemouth School, Bournemouth School for
Girls and St. Edward’s (brave Year 11s mixing with the other 6th
formers). They are proud to introduce their MD Claire Jefferies who
likes achieving goals and meeting new people; Claire is flanked by Raghd
Rostom, deputy MD, who describes herself as ambitious and dreams of
becoming a scientist! Well done girls! Nothing
new to report here, but I have an undercover Scoopologist attending the
Monday 27/10 group meeting...more to report shortly...and in keeping
with the true reporter's instinct, nothing will be left out, nothing! Tuesday Quantum (for now, is the group
name) advised by Siemens (still going strong despite the crisis in
Metallurgy) are comprised of Bournemouth School and Bournemouth School
for Girls (there is a ban temporarily in place restricting St. Ed’s
students from attending). One of the largest groups numbering 14
strong, Quantum proudly introduce Alex Anderson as MD who enjoys snooker
and humorous facial hair. Deputising Alex is Ruth Amey who describes
herself as motivated, loves a good book in between socialising.
Products right now are hush, hush….ssssshhhh! I
really want to lift the lid on all this Hush Hush business; it's not
good for the reputation of The Scoop and it's not good for you the
reader! I will be revealing all shortly.... Ellipsis (is the group name)
advised by Sunseeker (still going strong despite the crisis in leisure
boating and pleasure pedalo-ing) are made up of the big 3 schools –
Bournemouth School, Bournemouth School for Girls and St. Ed’s. Ellipsis
proudly placed their MD and Deputy MD in the proverbial executive
perch. Respectively, Edward Hastrop MD enjoys champagne and fancies
himself as a bit of a windsurfer, while Oliver Gardner Deputy MD likes
to get his hands dirty earning cash in between watching Telly and
prefers to be known as Oli! Nothing new
to report here, absolutely nothing...I should change the name of this
periodical, any suggestions?
Email yours and get a key chain, Please. Wednesday Thursday Budmouth Technology College are
a bit slow out of the blocks after a bout with Weymouth fever which has
reportedly decimated the numbers and cut off access to this part of the
world sometimes known as South Dorchester, North Portland or Weybiza.
The group, should they be cleared for meeting, are advised by DEK
Printing Machines Ltd. (a leader in the production and distribution of
machines which print circuit boards for hand-held telecommunication
devices). The group have nothing else to report. We can only
wish our western cousins luck and a rapid recovery.
Fully-fit now, the squad are back in training,
attending regular meetings at the DEK offices. Comprised of 4 team
players, this group Novelty Notes, will draw heavily on their musical
background to offer a cutting edge/hip product (that I cannot tell you
about). Musicians by trade, these guys are hoping to set the world
on fire, trading rifts and hopefully cash at the Trade Fairs. In
place as Managing Director is Faron Calder (Faz) who also acts as
Company Secretary - he will certainly be busy, talking to himself,
quoting himself, etc. Anyway, you can all rest assure that our
western cousins are back and do not seem to be too keen about taking
prisoners. Oh, I have to mention their band 'Playing with Giants,'
and I will certainly be getting the Scoop on that name's origin...do
they actually as a pastime, Play with Giants? Or, is it a nod to some of
the other bands in the world, They Might Be Giants, Gentle Giant...Or
are they acknowledging the American Football team or baseball team...OR,
is it a wink and a nudge to Sir Isaac Newton's quote that I cannot
recall that REM turned into a ditty - 'Standing on the shoulders of
giants'? I will uncover... Friday That is about it on the
Update....currently, the most popular non-member of a group is Juke from
Bournemouth School. I have heard his name invoked repeatedly at meetings
when they face a challenge. So, I have got to close this Update,
with a friendly Hello to Juke...Hi Juke, why is it you are so popular? Well, you heard it here first
folks; tune in next time to get my take on it. Best of luck to all the
groups, keep the ideas churning and remember you are only limited by
what you think limits you! Deep, eh? If you have any group news to
report, please email
Scoop Gibson at the news desk.
