John and I part at the end of an eventful February day!
In February of this year, I went to Melton Mowbray to hear John Hamilton speak to a PLSA East Midlands meeting about what needed to happen in this country.
This is a photograph of us late in the day waving from opposite platforms. But it seemed we were on the same journey metaphorically though not literally! He ended north of Perth, I ended in the City of London.
John will be speaking tomorrow about what he has done this year to make things grow at Stagecoach and wider!
He will be presenting to our Pension PlayPen coffee morning crowd and you could be one of them. We have a record attendance to break and I suspect John will come close!
You can find a link to tomorrow Tuesday’s coffee mornings here.
Here’s the advert.

Here are some recently presented slides.
They are an update of the set he presented to us at Melton Mowbray. How grateful (he to speak and me to listen) we are for Bob Compton who invited us! If you want your own copy, you can download the slides on this link
I have posted the link to the coffee morning meeting above and below and hope and here
I hope that we have a way forward for schemes like Stagecoach who want to run on and to do so with either capital backing or the backing of a financially confident employer like Aberdeen.
The call for John to come to this meeting on Tuesday 16th, was made at Tuesday’s meeting where Richard Jones was speaking. I had no doubt that John Hamilton would seize the opportunity if he could. He could!
I want John Hamilton to explain how he wants – as ongoing Chair of Trustees of Stagecoach – to embrace “innovation, growth”, in finding his purpose.
There are questions asked in this week’s coffee morning which we have shared with John Hamilton with this video. Go to minute 2o minutes for the section where Richard turns to Stagecoach and those at the Coffee Morning ask questions that John will be able to address next Tuesday.
We hope you enjoy it; the debate is an historic document marking the progress we are making.
Yes videos as well as slide decks can be deemed documents!
I am sorry I made no contribution, other than to announce this “document” at the end. I spent a little time with my neurologist who was evaluating my little grey matter.
The work with Aberdeen is some of the most interesting in the DB “endgame” and I hope that before long we can get a spokesperson from Aberdeen to join us. We have one more slot this year.
If you find yourself with something to say at the end of the day, drop me a line at henry@agewage.com or put a comment on the blog. I will pass things on to Steve Goddard who has the keys to the webtool!
To end, here’s tomorrow’s (Tuesday’s) link to hear John and talk with him
