The Quiet Man Turns 39

On Sunday Jason Poland will be thirty nine. Jason has worked at Instanta for over eleven years now and is the deputy to Factory Leader Tony Mercer. Married to Jude, Jason is a very keen (and very good) pool player who enjoys holidays in far away places although he is also very much at home in Ayia Napa in Cyprus where he takes his autumn breaks.Though Ayia Napa is not famous for its quietness, Jason is very much the quiet man of Instanta. He likes to get his head down at work and, as a result, he is one of the most productive workers we have. Have a great day Jason. You've earned it.



We're down to almost the last box of our super 2008/2009 brochure and I am working flat out with Jen at Workhouse Marketing to get the 2010/2011 issue out. It's a big brochure with a lot of new stuff in it and it's starting to look very good. I've got a deadline of 31st January and it's going to take a concerted effort to hit it but at the moment we're looking good. If any customers have got an interesting case study regarding an Instanta boiler that they have supplied to a photogenic site please get in touch.We've got quite a few possibilities but so many of our end users such as the police and the royal palaces are unwilling to give endorsements as a matter of policy.



Here's Tony Lowe from our stores. Tony is suffering from a severe case of franker's cramp today having prepared over 2,500 copies of our Dealer Newsletter for tonight's post. Thanks Tony (and Jenny and Marion and Peter and Phil and Lee and Craig) for your sterling efforts in getting this out so quickly. We only got the letters from the printers at nine o'clock.



And here is the front of the Dealer News.There's some interesting stuff on the back too. If you are on our mailing list you should get it on Monday. If you aren't, we can supply you with an email copy or pop one in the post to you. Let us know.

I'm on an email list that sends me all the latest viral videos that are taking the internet by storm. One came from Coke this morning. It's supposed to be about a Happy Vending Machine that Coke set up in a University common room but it's rubbish.So here's one for Pepsi instead (that isn't).
