    No i don’t thing so (hope not) Peter, I’ve known him years, he’s from surrey.

    He has just parted company from his business partner (double glazing) and come up with the name “county windows”, he did a company search and found the name was available..did say something to me, about the other company gone belly up..

    His brief.. nice lettering, must be blue and it’s got to have a tree.. also his new partner is doing kitchins, and that will properly be called “County Kitchens”??? lol

    Hope you never lost any money mate? right pain in the a*se when a company goes bust on ya.. unfortunately been there

    Blue trees dont’ work for me. Jill thats a great artwork, I like that.

    Simon… just managed to do a quick webcheck at companies house, appreicate it is a friend but the one called “Country Windows Limited” in NW1, liquidated a few years back, there are a few more including “Country Windows (Susex) limited” and “Country Windows (Kent) Limited” which seems to have traded for a few years.

    Cheers All,

    Thanks Jill you do come up with some great ideas, love the idea of the tree through the window thing..
    I was also thinking of using photos on the van, maybe try moving over to digital a bit?????but don’t want it to look like a gipsy’s van, if you know what i mean, as we have quite a few round here..

    I will have to have a mess around and see what else i can come up with..
    Maybe just send over a pile of designs (2-3) to him and let him pick them about.

    thanks again

    Simon

    hmmmmm trying this again – it wouldn’t let me post it the first time

    Played with this County Windows last night so I figured I would post it for you Simon, or else it would have just sat on my computer 😉
    But, I see it’s totally diff. from what you had in mind and what your customer likes….all the same….here it is 🙂

    I like the one you have going with ALL green for the copy and graphic
    looks nice.

    Adding the file sep. since maybe that’s why it wouldn’t let me post originally (all together might have been too large?)
