The National Trade Only Show at Coventry


Mullingar Crystal recently exhibited at the National Trade Only show at the Ricoh arena in Coventry.

We were very pleased with the show. The quality of exhibitor was very high as was the quality of attendee. We had a good corner stand located at the centre of the action.

Our CrystalArt range received many compliments and the phrase used most often by visitors to the stand was that "it was nice to see something different".

We showed some of the examples of recent jobs we had done and this seemed to impress. Best of all was the fact that so many mentioned that we were very reasonable on price.


Hope it all turns in to more business!

Tomorrow (as adapted by Scott mc Kain)


I recently attended the PPAI expo in Las Vegas. One of the many inspiring speakers was Scott Mc Kain who finished his excellent presentation with the following poem.


Tomorrow
He would be all

That a mortal could be…

Tomorrow

No one would be kinder

Or fairer than she…

Tomorrow

Each day he would stack up

The letters he would write…

Tomorrow

She would think of the customers

She would fill with delight…

Tomorrow

But the fact is they died

And faded from view

And all that was left

When living was through

Was the mountain of things

They intended to do…

Tomorrow
