		<description>Oh god - I hope that you never spot me doing anything dodgy!

The worst I saw was at a - being careful now - network event in West Sussex. This guy ran his own photography business and came in with a big pile of cards, clutched between both hands. I&#039;m not going to tell you who - but I have remembered him..

He ran around, made no eye contact, certainly no conversation, pushed past people and thrust cards into our hands.

In the future, if I need a photograph taking I would employee anybody but that guy!

Perhaps the first rule to making a good impression is not to make a bad one
