PG Live

Tuesday morning came round very quickly and it was a very early start on the 6.21am train bound for Kings Cross thankfully I had coffee at the ready!

I arrived at the Design Centre in Islington at 8am, a bit too early, but I wanted to check that all was well after we set up on Sunday although I did not doubt any of my husband's work for one minute!

The first day went by really quickly and there was a steady flow of people throughout the day. Lunch was fab the people at PG Live put on a great lunch which is free to exhibitors and visitors and it was nice to just have 20mins away from the stand and relax.

Everyone who came onto the stands were very positive and loved the male ranges "Metro" and  the brand new range "Mad about..." which was launched at the show.

Just as I thought things were slowing down a bit at 4.30pm I got my very first order, I was so excited and a bit tongue tied but it all went well and it made a great end to the day along with the free after drinks party also put on by the organisers. As it is so close to Kings Cross I decided to go back home, nothing like your own bed!

An early start again for the second day, I am thankful I do not have to commute anymore! Today I made some great new contacts and all of the new exhibitors around me were so friendly and helpful, it really made the show. I was exhausted by the time I got home but it was brightened up by a card my daughter had made for me showing Mummy at work (I wonder where she gets it from).

All in all it has been another great experience to do the trade show, just have to get to work on all the follow ups now.
