After months of planning, we’ve finally moved to our new offices in the centre of Colchester. We are here in East Street. Actually, we’re in the building behind where the arrow is pointing. It took a whole weekend to move from our old premises in Manningtree, but all went smoothly, and we were up and running for business as usual by Monday morning.

We’re enjoying the new facilities, and it’s nice that we’re not sitting on top of each other any more. Feel free to pop in and see us any time for a cup of tea.

Oh, and if you’re looking for offices to rent near the centre of Colchester, we have 2 available, get in touch!

It has been some time in the making,  but we are delighted to announce that the new website for The Balloon Company has been launched. Excitingly, the site is our first for an international customer, with TBC being based in Norway.

TBC is a dual language e-commerce site split into two sections for balloon bouquet delivery and wholesale balloons.

We’ve been a bit quiet recently due to the arrival of my first daughter – Tilly. She was born on the 6th August weighing 7lb 5oz, and is very healthy, particularly in the screaming department.

Mixing work with little sleep is proving to be a challenge, but all seems OK so far!
