Stop Press -Lighthouse Printing nominated for Award!

We've just had a call from 'Matt' from 'Sales Promotion Magazine'. Apparently Lighthouse Printing www.lighthouseprinting.co.uk have been nominated for a 'Cog Award'. www.cogs-awards.co.uk

Can't pretend to have heard of the Awards but apparently there has been a lot of Tweeting about them..... We've had an invitation to the ceremony in London so we'll have to dig out the tuxedo and ball gown (Fay's in the tuxedo....).

Good Luck City!

Many thanks to my badminton buddy Huw who has come up trumps with a ticket for me for the all-important Cardiff City vs. Leicester game tomorrow night. City just need a draw to go through to the the multi-million pound final which would win them the glittering prize of Premiership football. It reminded me of the maddest print enquiry I had from a fanatical Cardiff City fan.....

The bloke in question was Will, who owned a very successful pub on the outskirts of Cardiff and being a crazy Bluebirds fan, had a deep-rooted hatred of neighbours Swansea City.

Will rang me one day and the conversation went something like this...

"Jon, can you print a target for me?".

"What sort of target?"

"A big one, about three feet across"

"Why, are you taking up archery?"

"No - I want it to go at the bottom of a bird-cage. I've got a parrot in the pub and I want a three foot wide target printed, with a Swansea City crest in the middle of it to go at the bottom of his cage. Every time the parrot poos on the Swansea crest all the regulars will have to give him a peanut."

You see - it's not all letterheads and wedding invitations here at Lighthouse Printing... www.lighthouseprinting.co.uk
