Hmm.... I went armed with a list of stands to visit. My thought on each were:
Harmony: Lovely nice new stand this year but as last September were not ready at 10am. Tills werent on, printers not hooked up for receipts, no suggestion or thought on queuing which meant it was a massive bun fight.
Sweet Squared: Ridiculous! The queues were simply stupendous and rendered alot of people unable to get up and down the stairs to the lower part of the show but i guess this was simply because it was their first show in years and a very very popular company. It was a great shame though that they didnt have stock of their color and effects range. Seeing as it was so revolutionery only 5 mins ago. Seems Shellac is their current baby.
Le Beeby: Usually i hate their stands as they position everything so damm close to each other BUT they won my best customer service award for refunding a tunic i brought from them in September with no reciept!! Kudos to them!
Sienna X: As usual very nice informative helpful staff
Peron Rigot: Was very pleased to meet Andu who answered a question i had extremely informativly and was most helpful
General Organisation: Poor. Slack security. In point I was trying to sort the free VIP car parking ticket to be met with blank faces from the ticketing staff and a mumble about asking the event organisers. Once i was ushered to their offices i was met with quite frankly rude indifference from the three staff members there who claimed the ticketing girls had the tickets and were uninterested in helping me. On my way out of their office i found myself in the show itself at 9.40am! So i stayed there untill the show officially opened and made sure i was in the right places at the right time. Upon leaving the car park attendants seemed to be making a pigs ear of the traffic so anyone arriving about 12pmish had a nmightmare getting in. ALSO i paid my carparking ticket (should have been free!!) only to make my way to the exit to discover the bloody barriers were up anyway GRRRRRR
