All Good Stuff

Had a really good week with Treasure Trails which began with a trip to Poston Mill to meet the owners and marketing manager and talk through how we can help them with Things to Do for their guests. Have worked on a proposal with different ideas which hopefully will appeal to them, just got to wait now.

Monday afternoon, met up with a lady that up to now I have only tweeted with. Was such fun to chat face to face - hope to meet her again soon!

Monday evening had the new Treasure Trails licensees for Warwickshire and West Midlands over for dinner and to exchange news and views about the Treasure Trails business - so great to have one of the counties that joins ours now occupied and we look forward to doing some of their Trails in due course.

Tuesday caught up with some of the admin - still chasing our prize winners from the prize draw we did early January - only two more to track down now! Maybe they don't want their three free Trails :) Also had an invitation to join Visit Herefordshire at the NEC for the Outdoor Show, so hope we get to take that up as it would be a good practise run for when we go up there for Crufts in March.

Wednesday, heard from the Golden Valley and Black Mountain experience, a local conglomerate of cottages and B&Bs, who have asked for some Trails to do together at the start of British Tourism Week, so hope to get some reasonable publiciity out of that. Gave them three copies of the Golden Valley Trail which is a driving Trail starting in Madley and finishing at Arthur's Stone near Hay on Wye. British Tourism Week starts on 14th March, so they are going to do the Trail then.

Also on Wednesday, packaged up Susanna's Challenge - a challenge we have put together for a group of hens, which they will do at the end of the month in Ledbury. they will have a fab time.

Last night, met up with the Inspire Herefordshire Ladies networking group - a really great group of women. We had a talk on Social Media from Heather Gorringe of Wiggly Wigglers and Christine Hope of Hopes of Longtown which was really inspirational and gave us all a renewed sense of purpose!

Today, more admin stuff including booking some more fairs and shows for this year and generally twittering and preparing for various meetings next week.
