individual festive light projects in the current season. This has been
the busiest season so far and Charlestown Ltd’s staff have worked
through difficult weather conditions to enable all the switch-ons to be
carried out without a hitch.
General Information
Charlestown Ltd had an early Christmas Party
with all members of staff enjoying an evening of 'congenial
conversation', a Shandy or two and 3 comedians at the Jongleurs Comedy
Club in Leeds. A good time was had by all and everybody managed to get
home... eventually!
Charlestown Ltd closes for the Christmas
Break at 12 noon on the 23rd December and opens for business
on Monday the 4th January 2010.
2009 has been a difficult trading year for
everybody and lets hope 2010 brings more optimism and we can finally put
the “Credit Crunch” behind us.
So it just
leaves Bob and myself to wish all clients, colleagues and suppliers a
Happy Christmas and a Prosperous New Year.
Our next issue of
“Connected” will be out in March; which will be packed with news, views
and events. |
