Irogen Toby Robot – Review

December 8th, 2011

I recently ordered a Toby Robot from Irogen. Originally it was through Living Social but after waiting 6 weeks for delivery I found out that Irogen could not honour the agreement so Living Social refunded my money. I had called Irogen and they gave a different excuse but said I could have one direct at the same price. I bought it even though it was more expensive once adding the postage costs!

I have since been waiting 5 weeks more since my second order for delivery. I have been quite fair in giving the company a chance to respond, they told me 2 weeks ago the goods were stuck with customs but they do not keep me up to date regularly and have only offered me more expensive alternative products.

I hope the goods will arrive and I can change my opinion of Irogen, at this stage though I would not recommend Irogen to friends.

Wedding Photographer in Hertfordshire

September 28th, 2011

Hi,

I have not posted a blog for a while as I have been busy getting married. I had a great day and a great wedding photographer who I would happily recommend. It is a Husband and Wife team and the website is www.gleedphotography.co.uk

Andrew Gleed and his wife Jackie were extremely friendly, easy to relax with, professional and stealth like on the day getting all the required shots. Andrew is extremely good at the formal shots while Jackie gets the informal, more relaxed shots of the guests. They have many styles of album to offer and can build bespoke packages including parents albums and many large print formats.

They are prepared to travel although our event was in Hertfordshire they cover a much wider area. If you mention this site it would be good for them to hear how much we liked them.

Wedding Disco – Horwood House, Milton Keynes

July 4th, 2011

I recently provided a wedding disco at Horwood House just outside Milton Keynes. The venue is a modern style hotel attached to an old country house.

Location- Milton Keynes, Horwood House
Travel Time –  35 minutes travel time.
Setup time – 1hr 15mins. This is a longer setup than normal due to the location of the halls and the distance to carry equipment.
Space for full setup? – Yes,
Smoke Machine – No
Bubble Machine – Yes
Lighting – On dimmer switches, although not all of it could be controlled. Since the refurbishment certain lights I was told had to be left on. These were right by the dancefloor and in my opinion contributed to a lack of atmosphere on the dancefloor. The party was good but with the lights dimmed could have been better. I did ask a number of staff several times if they could be turned off but no joy. Very odd setup!
Noise / Sound Limiter – No
Layout – Bar in same room as Disco, Tables around edge of dance floor
Staff – Organised and Helpfull except for the lighting. Also the power didn’t work in any of the sockets near where I setup. I had to run a long cable half way around the room to a different set of sockets. Fortunately this is something I carry with me.

Updates and disco reviews

June 28th, 2011

Hi,

Things have been a bit hectic recently as we are well into wedding disco season, although I would say that is almost all year around now!

Anyway I have updated some reviews I have had on http://www.acsupreme.co.uk/Disco_Feedback.htm

I have been out and about a fair bit, some familiar venues and some new which is nice. I played Moor Park Mansion house which was a nice venue and from what I could see a very well organised wedding. I’ll pop a review on after this. I also played Horwood House which I have played before many years ago but I was in a different room this time. Also I provided a disco at the Buckinghamshire Golf Club for the Denham Ball, which looked like a lovely golf course, wish I’d have had time to play. The venue itself is a lovely setting I will post a full review. Another golf club I provided disco services for was Abbey Hill in Milton Keynes. The BBQ was huge and the choice of food really good.

Right I’ll crack on with the reviews of the venues to help anyone picking a venue in the coming months.
