Colin Haig may be gifted at pulling companies out of trouble, but when it comes to telling jokes, the former IPA chief is not exactly stand-up comic material.
TS recently heard about a champagne reception, which Baker Tilly hosted to herald the opening of a specialist business recovery unit in London, starring those tough guys of the insolvency world Louise Brittain and Ross Connock.
In a speech to toast the new partners, Haig said: 'Anyone who knows Lou can say that they know what it's like when you've been Tango'd'. That's a cracker Col.
He then dug out another old chestnut by saying the reception showed the old joke about his firm (what's the difference between Baker Tilly and a coconut? At least you can get a drink out of a coconut) was wrong. Don't give up the day job. Please.
