National Sales Conference – 800 Delegates<br />
Just writing to say a massive thanks for your help, from a technical point of view<br />
your hospitality was second to none, often in large <strong>hotel</strong>s there is a lack of<br />
quality, speed and enthusiasm. But you guys where all brilliant and helped with<br />
anything asked. You made life so much easier whilst on site and played an<br />
essential part in making this event the great success that it was!<br />
