Come on Dodgy, how many new contacts do you have as a result of this?

I have been asked to connect with a Bosnian ex army surveillance man. The question is why?
Although I need people with investigation skills - he wouldnt know that - this may be a bit more than I bargained for.
In his profile he describes himself as
Over 19+ years of experience in military, intelligence and security operations environments with demonstrated success. Operational and tactical planning, logistical management, counter surveillance, protective sweeps, advances, detail formations and armored vehicle motorcade movements in support of protective security operations.
On the other hand this time next year I might have my own motorcade and be grateful for someone like him

Originally posted by chef View Post3rd level contact for me via my current agent and some of his contacts.
Dodgy, on linkedin, you need to either remove the first link for your company website (the .com trees one, not the .co.uk) as it links to a page that is under construction or get the site built, as it's the domain name for your email address.
For me, if a new agent sends me a mail, the first thing I do is take the domain name part of it and do some background looking for that co, it doesn't give a good impression if that domain links to a non existing site.
FFS, if you've had the company for 6 years according to LinkedIn, how long does it take to build a website?
I like the pic though, it says sucessful Tory supporter to me.

Here is a picture of it without the unconvincing photoshop job and surprisingly sharp shadow for such a cloudy day:
