Wayne Gibbins – Notion Capital – VC
Gibbo as he is commonly called used to work collecting stamps and is the son of a famous stamp collector called Stan…he is not a gibbon which many think. I personally do not think he looks anything like a monkey.
Wayne has a lovely house but the walls are covered in stamps which I think is a bit off but hey ho, everyone to their own…unless of course you are very religious and then you don’t quite follow the mantra of everyone can have their own thoughts. This is Wayne’s idea of paradise:)
Doug obviously is writing rubbish
