    I would just like to take the time after a busy day to thank Peter and Lynn Normington for completing a a print job for me on time and the finest quality.
    It was great to meet you both today and as i said getting me out of trouble, well worth the 4 and a half hours sitting in my van (how bad was the traffic)

    so many thanks
    rich

    good to hear rich… im sure lynn and peter were more than hospitable mate. 😀
    regarding your stand… looks well, but as a little bit of constructive crit…
    ide have reduced everything to about 85-90% of the graphics/text size.
    then spaced it a bit. sign makers tend to forget exhibition work is looked at up close’ish…

    Rob good points, it was a little hit and miss as i had not done this type of banner and the sizes were given to me by the customer but overall the jobs a go one
    when designing this i didnt even take into account it had a top rail
    😳 😳 😳 😳 😳 😳 😳

    thanks mate

    not surprised at Mr & Mrs N being so hospitable Richard. Nice too see your comments though.

    exhibition stuff always seems to be a rush for me 😕

    Nice work as usual Rich, I have had a similar thing with exhibition work, customer calls you on Thursday and says they need it for the week-end. I’m sure some people think we just sit around waiting for them to call!!!!!!

    Martin, you are one of the nicest people I have never met.

    And thanks for the 😳 compliments Rich. You are a great guy.
    Very nice to meet you in person.

    We did nothing really, just put your work through a machine.
    And the picture doesn’t do your work the justice it deserves,

    But it was good to meet you, and good that as board members, we were able to help out when needed,

    Peter and Lynn
