Charters

The following are extracted from the feedback we request from the organiser of each of our charter tours, as part of our Quality Assurance program.

A HUGE thank you for all your assistance in putting together our tour to Swan Valley for our member delegates as part of our National Conference.  I have only received positive comments from the delegates with all reporting that they had a wonderful time.  To top it off the weather was excellent so all in all a great day was had.

Please pass my thanks on to Barry, he seems like he would be quite the character :), and to the other drivers involved.  Please also pass on my thanks and notes of positive comments to the venues involved.

Thanks also for my bottle of wine, have not yet had the chance to try it but look forward to opening it soon!

 
Susan Adams, Hardware & Building Traders
