Apologies from the Flower Fairy
Tuesday, October 2nd, 2007Flower Fairy flys today…
Monday, September 24th, 2007
Today the flower fairy is on her way to Amy at Vodafone. Amy insisted she didn’t want flowers for simply doing her job, but we thought she deserved them anyway. As well, we’ll be making a small donation in her honour.
Great job Amy!
Flower Fairy on her way to Sarah Bedwell of MustardPR
Monday, September 17th, 2007
Hello again everyone! It is I, Krystal, your resident Flower Fairy with this weeks delivery.
Today’s flowers are on their way to Sarah Bedwell of MustardPR, she was very kindly nominated by Adam who had these kind words to say
Ever since I joined MUSTARD PR in July 2006, Sarah has been tremendous support. This is my first full-time job so I obviously had lots of reservations. Sarah made me feel very welcome and there was never anything too trivial for me to ask her – she would, and still does, always make time for me.
Sarah is very hard-working and her enthusiasm for our clients has a profound effect on the rest of the team because we all know that we are a team and we all look out for each other. This is shown by the great results we collectively achieve, for example, the WJMC poker tournament we hosted on Thursday night.
I don’t think I have ever seen Sarah in a bad mood and despite the fact she has to travel 55 miles to work every morning, which usually includes being stuck in traffic on the M4, she always has a smile on her face! This is definitely a rarity in our industry.
I really think Sarah deserves a visit from the flower fairy because it would be a great way for me to show how grateful I am for all her support and hard work and I think she deserves to be treated for her kindness. If it wasn’t for Sarah I don’t think I would have fitted in quite so well.
Congratulations Sarah! Well deserved!
Flower Fairy flies to Ben Holmes of Index Ventures
Monday, September 10th, 2007
Good morning everyone! Krystal the resident Flower Fairy with this week’s flower delivery. Today they are on their way to Ben Holmes of Index Ventures.
Everyone knows Index Ventures.
Whether it’s FON, Last.fm, Skype or RebTel, they’re all over the mobile industry.
Ben himself has been nominated by an anonymous SMS Text News reader (their company is in super-quiet stealth mode at the moment).
Mr Anonymous immediately suggested Ben as the Flowers recipient this week describing him as a solid chap:
“Ben always makes himself available, particularly at Second Chance Tuesdays and Open Coffee Mornings, to answer questions and give advice to those he meets. He’s enormously patient, extremely knowledgable and always gives fantastic replies.”
Here’s Ben’s profile at Index Ventures.
Congratulations Ben!
The Flower Fairy Flys…
Monday, September 3rd, 2007
Hello all!
Krystal, the resident Flower Fairy, here again with this week’s recipient.
Today’s flowers are rushing towards Barbara Webb, PA to ROK’s Chairman Jonathan Kendrick.
Barbara was nominated with these lovely words:
Maybe our very own Barbara Webb – ‘The Lovely Barbara’ (as she is know) – should be nominated?
Barbara has been PA to ROK’s Chairman, Jonathan Kendrick, for 5 years.
Always unflappable, charming, organised and polite.
Great job Barbara! We hope you enjoy your flowers.
Ross Elmsly of Sybase365 gets this week’s flowers!
Wednesday, August 29th, 2007
Hello! It’s Krystal here with apologies for the Flower Fairy being delayed this week, apparently if you’re not sending actual flowers you can’t get same or next day delivery, and the bank holiday put me a day behind to begin with.
On that note…
Today’s flowers (actually, we chose chocolates this week) are on their way to this week’s good guy, Ross Elmsly of Sybase365. He was nominated with these kind words by John Maynard over at Vodafone:
Do you know Ross Elmsly from mobile365? Vodafone run Aggregator forums every quarter, giving our customers a chance to get face to face with the product mangers looking after the wholesale stuff, and to chat to each other. They are always well attended and people enjoy them.
At the latest one, there was a draw for a chance to be scared whitless in a fast car by Lewis Hamilton – Ross won the draw.
Thanks John!
Enjoy your flowers chocolates Ross!
Flower Fairy Delayed…
Tuesday, August 28th, 2007Due to the Bank Holiday, the Flower Fairy is a bit delayed this week, stay tuned!
SMS Text News flowers problem
Monday, August 20th, 2007We’ve had a wee bit of a problem with sending flowers this morning. Krystal and I have been hunting high and low for the address of this week’s recipient. It appears, alas, that I think we’re going to actually have to phone them and ask them for their address.
How boring, eh? It won’t be that much of a surprise for them!
