I miss Cosmo tbh. It didnt take much to get banter going, however, the exposure of J Da Silva's non-existent sister spooked him for sure. I wonder if pics were ever exchanged between him and the girl he thought he was talking to?

I also miss correcting him when he used to bang on about how he owned his flat out-right

Never the less though, shame that the shops seems to have gone bust

Cosmo How are Liverpool doing?

I got the impression his dad had money invested all over so I'm sure Cosmo will be hooked up with another job elsewhere. Very strange tho detailing everything on the website as mentioned. Funny John mentioning that pin thing, it's the first thing I remember when I think of Cosmo Seemed like a decent enough idea at the time.

Yeah he just worked for them.


He was on the books as a director according to that thread on MSE.


Yep, a director and he's company secretery too.

Such a shame.

I bought my bridesmaids dresses from him and got my dress altered by his Woolton shop as my original shop closed down.

I cant disclose the value of my works overdraft mind, but £20k isn't that much over 4 shops.

Many small companies need overdrafts. Without huge cash rich backing then there are so many reasons why you might need it - perfect example.

Car audio shop - has 5K install on car for dealer. orders stock, installs then gives car back to dealer. Bills dealer. Gets his audio bill so has to pay otherwise looses their supplier but might find the dealer does not pay for another 2 months. Thats 5K you then have to have hanging around for 1 job. Multiple that up by a months worth of jobs and its easy to see a working 20k overdraft is nothing.

I know what 'tic' means but you made the statement that he had everything on tic, just wanted to know exactly what was on tic?

However, having a business overdraft doesn't mean he had everything on tic though

Nath was one of the few on here who actually met Cosmo so I think he's slightly better placed to judge the situation tbh.
