Proms are comming and Im too young to go !

Its so hard being the younger child and watching your older brother or sister do all of the things you are still too young to do, especially when you see them getting all dressed up, excited and ready for their prom night and you have a night at home with your parents stretching ahead of you.

Well prom night may not be a night you have to miss out on, if you can convince your parents to hire you a limousine for the night too. You can hire a limo with a few friends and go to the movies, ice skating, bowling or whatever you choose to do, and you can have a fun night out while your older brother or sister is out at their prom.

Make sure that you mention to your parents that if they hire you a limousine from the same limo hire company they hired the prom limousine, they will probably be able to negotiate a discount for hire, because they are hiring a number of limos, instead of just a one off limo.

Now you are free to have a night out on prom night too and your limo chauffeur will be there to take you wherever you want to go, and pick you up when you are finished. You can enjoy the freedom of being out on your own without your parent’s as chauffeur, and you can get the taste of freedom for when you prom night comes around.

Also make sure to point out to your parents that with you and your older brother or sister both out of the house, they can have a night to themselves without any kids. While they will be worried about their prom going child and the mischief they could get up to and the fact they their babies are growing up, your parents will also welcome the chance to get back their lives after spending so much of them looking after you.

SNOW CAUSES CHAOS IN GUILDFORD

The Children of Guildford in surrey might well be happy to see the snow on the ground with the prospect of a day off school and building snow men. In fact over 45 schools have now been closed. However, limo drivers and other motorists aren’t so happy.  Here at Fresh Limousines we will ensure that any limousine and wedding car hire bookings continue with out any problems. 22 gritters have been out in force so the main roads have been kept snow free but the side roads have been badly effected.   The limousines will be sticking to the main roads and Guildford city centre it self as the some of the side roads are very bad.  For example Surrey county council have announced that  there will be no bin collections. If you are planning to travel in these icy conditions please take extra care on the roads and allow plenty of time for your journey. We are still taking limo hire bookings so if you have any requirements please don’t hesitate to contact us. Guildford snow 2

When to Hit the Sales in London

Many high street stores start their sales immediately after Christmas.

Late risers risk missing out on the best bargains so make sure you get there early to be the first through the doors.

Don’t despair if you’re not in town on the opening day of a particular sale.  Most sales last into the middle of January and you’ll find there are additional price cuts in the final few days.

London’s January Sales: Preparation is Key

Plan your shopping trip and think tactically. You might choose to target a particular shopping destination, such as the West End, Covent Garden or Westfield.

Department stores are always a safe bet for the savvy bargain hunter as everything can be found under one roof. Plus there’s chance to grab a coffee when it’s all getting a bit too tiring.

Now is the ideal time to invest in some designer threads. Splash out at trendy King’s Road boutiques or on the luxury labels of Bond Street. Alternatively, stock up on cheap gadgets; Tottenham Court Road is a great place for computers and electronics.

bluecrush-group1

If you know that shopping is going to be hard on your feet then help is at hand, It isn’t just shoes and plasma TV’s that are in the sale as limo hire can also be cheaper too. Why not do something different this January. Instead of the usual hunt for a parking space then off to find a bargain use our limo service to transport you to all your favorite stores in complete luxury.

CHRISTMAS IN LONDON 2009

Christmas in London 2009: Festive Lights

‘A Christmas Carol’ comes to London this winter as the city plays host to the world premiere of Disney’s animated film version of Charles Dickens’ Christmas classic. For the first time ever, the Christmas lights over Oxford Street and Regent Street as well as those at St Paul’s Cathedral are switched on simultaneously with stars of the film including Jim Carrey and Colin Firth doing the honors. All over town, dark winter nights are lit up as London glitters under a canopy of sparkling Christmas lights.

Oxford Street Christmas Lights

Xmas lightsJim Carrey has the honor of turning on the Christmas Lights on Oxford Street this year, part of the city-wide celebrations to mark the premier of A Christmas Carol, Disney’s latest film in which he stars. The lights on Oxford Street are, for the first time ever, linked to those on Regent Street with the illuminations on both streets being switched on at the same time on 3rd November. Both streets are decorated to depict the characters from the film based on Dickens’ famous festive story. As part of the evening celebrations there’ll be Christmas concerts with a special performance by The Saturdays, street entertainment and carol singers to set the festive mood. Be prepared for a big crowd – a staggering total of 40 million shoppers usually visit Oxford Street over the Christmas period and the turning on of the Christmas Lights has come to mean Christmas is nigh. When night falls a large throng assembles to see the switching on ceremony, their expectant faces lit up by a canopy of brilliant lights.

Regent Street Christmas Lights

regents street lightsThis year they’re doing something a bit special for the Christmas Lights on Regent Street. For the first time ever the lights on Regent Street are being switched on at the same time as those on Oxford Street and both are decorated along the same theme – Disney’s A Christmas Carol, to tie in with the new film starring Jim Carrey. As part of London’s A Christmas Carol celebrations, the film’s actors, Colin Firth and Robin Wright Penn, will be turning on the Regent Street Lights, revealing illuminations which bring Charles Dickens’ popular Christmas tale to life. There’ll be live music from Daniel Merriweather and The Noisettes, Christmas concerts, street events and carol singers to get the Regent Street crowd into the festive mood. Regent Street’s Christmas Lights are among the most spectacular of all London’s winter illuminations, and images of Regent Street under swathes of fairy lights are synonymous with this festive time of year. Families from all over the country make the trip to see the lights being switched on. Make your way to the sweeping John Nash-designed shopping street and you can see lights that have symbolised the spirit of Christmas since 1954 being switched on. With giant retailers like Hamleys, Liberty’s and newcomers like Banana Republic and the Ferrari Store lining the street, you won’t be short of present shopping opportunities either. The switching-on ceremony begins on 3rd November and the streets continue to be lit up until 5th January.

CELEBRITIES, TWITTER IN HASTE REPENT AT YOUR LEISURE........

Hi all, sorry we have not been able to post for a bit things have been really hectic, but were back now and just to get the ball rolling, I saw this brilliant post by Ashe over at IT Bloke, http://www.itbloke.net and thought it was very relevant at the moment so have a read and see what you think, maybe hiring a Limo may give you enough privacy to prevent somthing like this happening, over to you Ashe.

Ashe Test - 005OR ~ AK A THE END OF THE ROAD FOR THE TRUE ROCK AND ROLL LIFESTYLE.

Hi all, following on from my recent post, ( Ignore Social Media at your own Peril: http://www.itbloke.net/?p=522 ) , I have finally come to the conclusion that although I personally think that the rise of Social Media Marketing and real Citizen Journalism is a brilliant thing, I think it really will be the end of  the true rock and roll lifestyle for many, Rock, Rap and Country super stars and to be fair all celebs in general, LOL.

country-musicPersonally I can’t wait until the first allegedly squeaky clean and god fearing country singer in total disgrace, as he gets caught on Camera Phone snorting some illicit Drug or propositioning a much older shady lady of the night, would you not simply love to be a fly on the wall and watch the expression on his face as he suddenly realises that the media of the event went viral all over the worlds social networks in less than ten minutes of it being made.

Yet another angle we have to consider is, the ever growing mass of famous people who are now making real gaffs usingTwitter, and to be honest they are making these gaffs with good reason, Twitter to the un-educated seems, to be fair, well,  really quite  innocuous, I mean 140 characters what harm could that possibly do.

New Tool Brings New Mistakes

Most would argue that the micro-blogging site that has attracted millions of users, including celebrities and politicians, is a powerful tool for communication. But it’s amazing how much trouble that 140 characters can cause in reality and I predict we have worse to come.

Just like hitting “reply all” instead of sticking with the simple “reply,” one errant Twitter message available for all with an Internet connection to see, can send its author ducking for cover.

“While Twitter is a new tool that brings with it some new possible ways to make mistakes, people make mistakes in all of the different communications we already have,” said Sarah Milstein, author of “The Twitter Book” and social media consultant (she was the 21st user of Twitter). “What makes Twitter different is that the messages are public so that anyone can see them.”

Like a blog, Twitter is public but, unlike a blog, the messages, photos and links can easily be re-tweeted or passed along virally to other users, she said. That combination means that regrettable postings can be sent far and wide and then, to make matters worse, easily searched for on Google.

“Be thoughtful about your posting, be interesting, because Twitter is a medium where people choose to get your message,” Milstein said. “If you’re thoughtful about your individual messages, it also helps to take a step back when you’re doing something potentially inflammatory or that you may regret later.”

The question I have to ask here is; how long before someone really famous, like Cheryl Cole, (she of  The X Factorhttp://xfactor.itv.com/2009/ and Girls aloud fame)  Ashley Cole, Jordan aka Katie Price, Simon Cowell or god forbid Bruce Forysth, ( he off Strictly Come Dancing Fame, http://www.bbc.co.uk/strictlycomedancing/ ) drops a real gaff, (lets not forget Cheryl Coles Racist attack in Guildford) or are they now at least intelligent enough to leave twittering and tweeting in the twitterverse to either  a social media conscious PR Agent or WOM promotion companies, obviously.

Also with the rise of the Citizen Journalist and Social Media Connected, Camera, Smartphones, ( See my article on: Smartphones & Social Networks are making the classic Web and intranet obsolete http://www.itbloke.net/?p=486 ) I predict that within a year or so,  celebs will really have to watch what there doing as there whole life will then truly be  under constant scrutiny, and the slightest mistake they make, verbally, visually or otherwise will be broadcast around the world in seconds possibly ending there career.

So from here on in muscicians and celebrities alike will now have to think oh so very carefully about everything that they say, do and of course post, (in fact every single aspect of there lives), and never ever again know who they can really trust, in fact this will in theory force them to live a very sterile lifestyle and isolated existence even more that they already do,  and well to be fair, “THAT’S NOT VERY ROCK & ROLL IS IT NOW!” but hell the old saying go’s “there is a high price for fame” and now is the time the next generation of future celebs start paying “WITH THERE CONSERVATIVENESS”, or they will be repenting at their own leisure, LOL, Regards….. Ashe, IT Bloke – London.

WHY USE A LIMOUSINE FOR TRANSPORTATION


A limo or a limousine is a luxury car that is used in special events like weddings, VIP guest transportation, birthdays and airport transfers. It is a long car usually driven by chauffeurs. Limos are traditionally black or white in color. Nowadays, there are also other colors such as pink, magenta and blue.

You can hire limos for luxurious and high quality transportation, especially when a large party is traveling together for business or pleasure. Limos come with air conditioning, CD player, luxury interior, bar, television etc. You can also hire limos with workstations, Internet, telephone line and fax machines for business purposes.

There are limo hire services that are affordable, so anyone can hire a limo for their special event. Before you hire a limousine there are several things you will want to know about the services offered.

It is important to know whether the limo hire company you are going to use is operating legally and also whether they can meet all your requirements at a reasonable price. Some limo hire companies advertise their name somewhere on the limo. If you don’t want this ‘extra’, the company should be able to provide a clean one with the appropriate color you want. They should also provide a well-experienced and formally dressed chauffeur.

Usually limousine hire companies charge customers based on the type of events. So before you look for a limo service you have to consider the type of event for which limo is needed? Also note down the points such as for how many hours you need the limo and how many people will be there in the limo. Different types of limos available are stretch limos, SUV limos, party bus limo and more.

Reserve your limo early. It is advisable to do it few weeks or months in advance. As you will spend money in booking a limo, you have to assure yourself that you are getting the best service out of your money.

Hire a limo and make your journey an enjoyable and unforgettable one, which you will treasure for a lifetime!
