Oscar Calvo - The launch

Before the event

Today's the day, over a month in the making, everything will come together and there will be no problems or stress... Well here's hoping...

I took half the day off to help out... Organising a party is very remniscent of the club days...

So the invite said 6:30 for a 7:00 start, the models will do their thing around 7:30 - 8:00, there will be drinks and food served all night and the after party is at the Glasshouse, conveniently just round the corner...


After the event

The launch was a success... There were around 100 people through over the night, there was lots of drink, the music was great, everyone had a good time and the models looked hot..

It was a bit of a stress leading up to the start, there was lots to do and I didn't finish setting it all up until 7:00pm...

So, there were 6 shapped trees along the foot path with fairy lights, there were out door heaters spread out among the trees, a red carpet was run along the front of the shop window and bollards roped it off, creating the entrance into the shop...

The night went off with out many hitches, shite loads of wine glasses were destroyed, the show bags were in hot demand and everyone loved the shop.

We headed out to the Glasshouse for a couple of drinks, then off to the Peel...

While I was out the police were dispatched to our house as one of the neighbours complained about the noise... Someone found the cordless mic turned the PA on and started calling out for a price check on aisle 5, a total pisser, I would have been in hysterics... Being 3 or 4 in the morning, I can under stand why the neighbours were a little cranky, especially being a school night and all...

Well it will be nice and quiet around our place for a while... Nice..
