RE: Civic Sunday, Sunday 17th July 2011

I write to express my sincere thanks to you and the Riverside staff for all your help regarding Angela and I’s Civic Sunday commemorations.

As always you’ve been most helpful and professional throughout the whole process, which has been much appreciated. The room looked wonderful and the flowers were beautiful. The buffet in the chamber (which i appreciate was a bit of a last minute decision) was delicious and very much appreciated by those guests who had travelled a good distance to be with us on the day.

Thank you also for your flexibility and understanding in the face of the appalling weather.

Thanks again for all you help.

Hi Lisa,
Apologies for the delay in sending this, but I would like to say a big thank you to you for all your help in arranging the Annual Council Meeting and Civic Celebration Dinner on 20th May.
Please pass on our sincere thanks to Lord Caterers, the meal was superb and we’ve received so many compliments.
Nigel and the bar staff worked really hard and everything ran really smoothly.
Everything went brilliantly and I would be grateful if you would pass on our thanks to everyone involved.
I’ll be in touch when the Mayor decides on a date for the Mayor’s Ball.
Regards,
Elaine.

Hi Lisa,

Just a quick email to say a big thank you for all your help in arranging the Mayor’s Charity Ball. The evening was a huge success and raised £2030.00 for the Mayor’s Charity Fund. The Mayor and Mayoress were ‘over the moon’ with everything and we’ve received excellent feedback from many people who attended.

Please would you pass on the Mayor’s thanks to Nigel and his bar staff, they worked really hard. Would you also please pass on the Mayor’s thanks to Lords Caterers and their staff, the meal was excellent and we’ve received lots of praise from visiting Mayors.

Thanks again for all your help.
Regards,
Elaine Craven

Just a note to say what a really good dinner and night out at the motown diva which we attended last night. We had two tables of eight and were delighted with the meal and the room looked lovely. It was a credit to you all and all the hard work that was put in to prepare for it.

The motown diva was fantastic and was great to listen and dance to as well

Many thanks and looking forward to visiting again next year!
