My fabulous window cleaners

Posted on February 8th, 2012 by charlie

Oh how pleased am I with my shiny windows – and it's all thanks to www.professionalwindowcleanerscambridge.co.uk

These professional window cleaners in Cambridge are superb and really do a great job.  They are always friendly and turn up on time.  They are competitively priced too.

Cleaning windows is a job that most people would rather not do and I would recommend this company to anyone.  It saves you all the hassle and gets your windows looking immaculate.

I was chatting with my window cleaner the other week and we got into a really great conversation about the different businesses we knew and how service levels differed.  He said one of the best companies he dealt with was www.printingservicesislington.co.uk and as I have been looking for a new printing company for some time I decided to get in touch with them.  He was right: they are a really good company offering first class printing services at competitive prices.

I need some new company literature printing and I am very happy with the design work this company has done for me.  I will certainly be using the company again and am pleased that I took the recommendation of my window cleaner.  Happy days!

 

Funeral Arrangements

Posted on January 30th, 2012 by charlie

I was devastated when I was told that my Uncle Charlie died. We were very close when I was growing up and even though he was in his eighties when he passed away, I was very upset. I moved away from my hometown 30 years ago and didn’t manage to get home as much as I’d like, so it was a bit of a wake up call for me when we lost Uncle Charlie. I am from a very close family but it’s always hard to keep in touch especially when you have your own children and your own life.

I wanted to help as much as I could when it came to the funeral arrangements, so I did some research before I arrived in Cambridge and arranged to meet with www.funeraldirectorscambridge.co.uk. I wanted to help as much as I could so that Charlie’s wife and children and my mother, Charlie’s sister, could focus on other things.

Trying to buy my first house

Posted on January 18th, 2012 by charlie

I'm currently looking at buying my first house.  I have been living with my parents for years now and really need my own space.  I have been saving up and am confident I have enough money to get my own place.  I have been to see www.mortgageadvisorcambridge.co.uk and they have been fantastic at helping me find the best mortgage for my individual circumstances.

They have spent ages with me and given me really sound mortgage advice.  I feel happy that they will help, advise and support me through the whole buying process right through to moving in.  It's all very exciting and I can't wait to have my own place now.

The trouble is we have been so busy at work.  I am involved in project management and we have been working on some huge projects lately.  I recently needed to find a trade waste management company to help with a project and a business contact put me in touch with www.tradewastebridgend.co.uk  This company is amazing and really offer a great service.  I would certainly recommend them to others. 

We needed help from our friends

Posted on November 1st, 2011 by charlie

When it came to decorating our new dream home, my husband and I needed loads of help. We have never been very good at coming up with ideas or designing the interior of our home, but we really wanted to make it special. We are just not very creative and are both rubbish at shopping; in fact, we both hate shopping!

Some friends of ours recommended http://www.fittedbedroomfurnituremanchester.co.uk and they were great. The qualified staff helped us create the bedroom we wanted, using their skills and ideas alongside our tastes and style. We were looking for something fairly traditional but functional. We are so pleased with our bespoke bedroom, it looks fantastic.

Getting your portrait done

Posted on May 12th, 2011 by Sandy

I have wanted to get some portrait photographs of my two children for some time now, but I have never got round to organising it.  As young teenagers I wanted to get their pictures done before they grew up much more.  I contacted www.portraitphotographerscambridge.co.uk to discuss getting some pictures done and they were great.

Wedding Florists in Cambridge

Posted on February 24th, 2011 by charlie

I always thought that I wanted a bohemian, thrown together kind of wedding… until I started planning my wedding. I became Bridezilla! I never realised what a control freak I could be until I realised how special and important my wedding day was to me. I was so surprised when my fiance proposed, I really didn’t see it coming at all, and for some reason panic mode set in when I realised that I needed to plan so much for the day. Everything needed to be perfect, so I set about finding amazing florists who could help me get the look that I wanted. My prayers were answered by www.weddingfloristscambridge.co.uk.

A friend of mine recommended that I get in touch with www.electriciancambridgeshire.co.uk, as he had received excellent service from them.

Taxi Hire in Haverhill

Posted on February 21st, 2011 by charlie

Finding a reliable taxi firm in your local area has always been really important to me. I recently moved down to Cambridgeshire, and immediately wanted to find an excellent taxi company who could help me out. I can’t drive, and sometimes it just takes too long with public transport, so I needed a taxi company who I could rely on. I looked online and found www.taxihirehaverhill.co.uk, who work in my local area.

Residential Architects in Cambridge

Posted on February 18th, 2011 by charlie

When my wife and I decided that we would invest in an extension to our house, we didn’t think through all of the stages of the process that we would have to arrange. We decided to go to a builder who we had worked with before and he said that he would be happy to do the work, but he needed the architectural drawings. We hadn’t even thought that we would need architects, but of course, it makes perfect sense. Our builder recommended www.residentialarchitectscambridge.co.uk and we decided to call them for a quote.

Granite Worktop Cleaning Cambridge

Posted on February 17th, 2011 by Sandy

It’s that time of year again: Spring cleaning time.  It gives me a chance to really bottom the house and get everything spick and span for the year.  The kitchen is always a major job, with all the cupboards to clean out and food cupboards to empty of out-of-date stuff.  Another task is cleaning my granite worktop.  This year I have decided to call in the professionals and a friend has recommended www.graniteworktopcleaningcambridge.co.uk Read the rest of this entry »
