And these were just the star lecture days.
THANK YOU to everyone who has made the days what they were, it’s very much appreciated. I’ve seen some of the comments about Qualatex recently, and yes we all have differing views.
Mine over the 15 years have been most positive, working alongside them and I wanted to publicly thank them for helping us to be able to run all the balloon days, some 150 of them over the 15 years we have been working together.
The balloon industry would not be where it is now without the help of Qualatex… and yes I know they have their faults, we all do.
But in the main they have been a very positive and supportive company to the balloon artistes/decorators/entertainers etc.
With so many training days available for everyone. The amount of education they have put on over the years has been staggering.
So, from me, Qualatex, Thank you, it’s been a pleasure and I’ve loved going all over the country supporting and promoting you and the product.
Wishing everyone at Qualatex all the very best for the future.
Love and Kisses to all XXxx.
I thought I should post a balloon picture, so this possibly is one of my favourite top five balloon designs that I have made over the years. All made with just balloons, no wire, glue or anything else, just latex… oh and a marker pen
