An odd start to the meeting for me today, the barrier to the car park was closed and locked. But fortunately I opened it in time for folks to arrive.
Lin from Age UK came along and gave us some very useful information and the cases that she told about the ways people have been scammed or almost scammed in a variety of ways was sadly depressing but made me a lot more cautious.
I think it is a sad reflection on how the world is that those of us with morals and honesty think others are the same but unfortunately there seems to be more ways that we can be taken advantge of. By more sophisticated methods too.
Such a shame that instead of trusting people first, we may have to mistrust first.
I think that those who came along appreciated and enjoyed everything Lin had to say.
Thank you Lin and I hope to see you all in a fortnight.
