Listawood go large

Listawood - Europe's largest mouse mat and promotional products manufacturer have commissioned GGS to design and build a new 64 square metre exhibition stand. The new exhibition stand's high profile will reinforce the Company's number one position within Europe.


Designed to be reconfigurable, the stand will be used at a series of exhibitions in Germany, France and the U.K. with stand space ranging from 64 square metres down to 18 square metres

Snapped up!

Our Business Portrait offer was a big hit at the Chamber of Commerce Business to Business exhibition at Carrow Road yesterday with nearly 50 people taking advantage of the opportunity to have a top quality portrait taken by one of Norfolk's best photographers (Peter Griffin); and all for FREE!  Poor Pete barely had time to nibble a sandwich or have a slurp of tea, we were so busy! A virtually non-stop flow of visitors meant he was behind either the camera or the Mac for the entire six hours that the halls were open and he had no chance to wander round and see how many chocolates he could snaffle from the other stands like he normally does (mind you, probably not a bad thing...)

After all that hard work it was fantastic to learn that GGS had won 'Best Stand', the trophy for which Pete is holding in the above pic.  Bit hard to see as it's made of glass, mind you.

Thanks to everyone that dropped by and we shall be emailing all the pics early next week.

Free Business Portraits

I bet you need a good pic of yourself, or a member of your staff, to use in press releases, adverts, brochures or advertising material; don't you?
Of course you do.
I bet you are using ones taken on your mobile or your Sony Compact at the moment; aren't you?
Do they look like the picture on the left?


Would it be better to have one like the one on the right?
Of course it would.


Good; now we've got that sorted, get your diary out and schedule a visit to the Chamber of Commerce B2B Exhibition at NCFC Carrow Road on Thursday 20th October as we are doing FREE BUSINESS PORTRAITS between 11.00am and 5.00pm (as well as talking about everything else we do - exhibitions, design, web sites, large format digital printing etc. etc...)

See you there!

Addictive behaviour...



Honestly! Its always the same... you find something you REALLY LIKE - and then you're told too much of it is REALLY BAD for you:

> Tobacco
> Alcohol
> Curly Wurlies
> Asbestos
> Crimplene
etc. etc.

Well, with your health and well-being ALWAYS AT the forefront of our minds, we feel we now have to advise you of another emerging concern...

> Social networking

It seems people are getting SERIOUSLY HOOKED on interacting with each other via the internet - and too much of it is again REALLY BAD for you (apparently). So a fledgling support structure is growing fast to provide counselling to would-be addicts (example here). Well at least help is at hand now... phew!

But hey come on now, can some of us REALLY BE addicted to this relatively new phenomenon? Well, according to a growing number of seemingly well-researched articles and postings, this does indeed seem to be the case. Take this one for example, written and published over a year ago, but even then able to warn of the consequences of fidgeting with your smart phone when you should be out there doing something more character-building*. And this one, all very well, but come on now... do we need a REAL LIFE now we have Twitter?

*Suggestions on a postcard please.
