Superstar Stacey

In case you didn't know Stacey Roberts is part of The Military Wives Choir made famous on Gareth Malone's three part series! Their song that they had written for them using excerpts from their letters was performed at the Albert Hall and then they recorded it for release for Christmas. The proceeds will go to charity.

If you haven't seen it then here you go. A massive Well Done Stacey from all of us!

Congratulations!

To James Pilbrow and Dom Elgar for successfully completing their Apprenticeship in Retail. We were lucky enough to go to Newbury Racecourse for a reception, meal and awards ceremony.

I was so pleased & proud to see them go and get their certificates Smile

On a serious note, could you please make sure you pop your £1 in the charity pot or the pumpkin so we can raise some money for charity. It’s great to have fun at work but let’s raise the money as well.

Back to the fun…. a couple of final shots
