| Avcom West |
We covered
a bit about Avcom's new offices in Galway back in July,
but this time we bring you their new logo (pretty cool that!). Tony and his team are also delighted to announce their sponsorship of Galway United FC and are pictured here at the end
of season match on Friday November 9th where
they finished the season well with a victory over
UCD 2-1.
 |
Spotting a gap in the market Avcom opened their new branch Avcom West in the Co. Galway area earlier this year. With excellent local support this new branch is going from strength to strength and we look forward to continued growth over the coming new year.
Avcom
West, located in Cong, has
a full range of professional audio-visual equipment
and experienced local technicians who guarantee
a premium quality service. For all of your projection,
sound, lighting, staging, video, edit and graphics

| Slainte Stillorgan Opens for Business |
Formerly the Wine and Beer Warehouse, Slainte Stillorgan
is a brand new Off Licence just opened in Stillorgan.
Shane Pollard is the man behind this new business
and after a trip down to the store on opening
day, I
must say I was very very impressed. I had been
in the Wine and Beer Warehouse a few times over the past
few years, but nothing compares to what it
looks like now. It looks amazing.
|
 |
Slaine Stillorgan
sponsored the past few Neo events and we couldn't
be happier.
So just before Slainte sponsor our Great Big
Debate, Shane and his team have put together some
special offers for the festive season that we have
included below. A trip down to Slainte is well
worth it before Christmas. It is only metres away
from the Stillorgan Shopping centre and you can't
miss it, it's the big green building! |
Shane
was kind enough to give me a tour of the premises
the day they opened. I was drooling at the
choice of wine/beer and spirits and secretly
wondering how much I could fit into my bag
without seeming suspicious.
I contacted Shane last week and asked him did
he have any offers going for the festive period.
He got back to me straight away with some fantastic
ones. I've listed them below and I hope you all
take a trip down to Slainte and support them
as they have supported Neo. |
 |
I asked Shane
what was so special about Slainte Stillorgan:
Our unique selling point, says Shane, is our range of products,
over
1,000 in
total, Home Delivery, Plenty of Parking, Food
from Bombay Pantry and
Corporate Caterers - Food 4 Thought. as well
as Keg Hire, and Weekly
Wine & Beer Tasting Sessions. Also, we
are very competitive on price,
our case price is below that of Tescos on nearly
all the products we
both sell. We
also have a unique range of gifts from Wicker
Hampers to 2, 3 & 6
Bottle Packs as well as accessories. Many of
the wines chosen for
gifts are restaurant wines which will suit a
broad palate and can be
drunk with or without food.
And this gets even better. Shane
has dropped his prices even lower when you go
in and mention Neo Ireland:
- Bouchard Cuvee Rouge
- Should be €9.95 - €6.95
- Bouchard Cuvee Blanc - Should be €9.95
- €6.95
- Vincent Delaporte Sancerre
2006 - Loire Valley Producer of the Year
2006 - Should be €19.95 - €16.95
- Tommasi Valpolicella 2006
- Should be €14.95
- €12.95
- Sacchetto
Pinot Grigio - Should be €13.95
- €9.95
- Pere Anselme
Chateauneuf du Pape Reserve - Should be €23.95
- €19.95

| Skillnets Update |
 |
The Events Industry Skillnet Update
A quick update on what is happening with the
Events Industry Skillnet:
The Steering Group had its first meeting on
Monday evening and I have to say it was intense!
We are getting the machinery in place as fast
as we possibly can, as the terms of our contract
with Skillnets require a lot of paperwork very
quickly.
We are intending to start delivering the first
of the training courses in January, so watch
this space and others for details on what we
will be delivering, how it will be delivered
and all the other details that are keeping us
awake at the moment.

| Remember Your Lifeline... |
 |
This Christmas party season make sure you save yourself
a lot of suffering by taking your Lifeline Hangover Defence
early in the party. Lifeline is the natural way to prevent
hangovers, and is available in all pharmacies as well
as Dunnes, Tesco and Supervalu stores.
If you're organising an event, why not make sure all
your guests have a hangover free Christmas and provide
Lifeline for them in a goody bag or at the table - it
makes a huge difference the next day!
