A huge ‘thank you’ to Gareth for helping me to choose a new laptop, then setting it all up for me.

Gareth always says that he talks to people without confounding them with ‘tech-speak’ and, being pretty much IT illiterate, I want confirm that to be true! I don’t think it can have been the most exciting job for him, but throughout Gareth was incredibly helpful, professional, jargon-free and totally non-patronising; he made the process a pleasure. He asked all the right questions to make sure I got what I wanted and then set it up, doing a magic trick so that I could keep Windows 7 rather than 10!

I highly recommend him.

Judith is a superb Pilates teacher. I visited her well-equipped studio in the city for my first ever Pilates session with a bit of knee pain. She was very attentive and clear in her guidance, taking time to explain the theory behind some of the exercises. I got home feeling nicely stretched and ready for bed. Judit then ordered me some treatment balls and sent some of her own demonstration videos so I could keep up the exercises between studio visits. After 4 sessions I am now starting to appreciate what it means to “breathe into the ball”. Judit is also a talented dance teacher and has started my wife and I on a belated journey toward some semblance of dance floor confidence!

I’d like to say a huge ‘Thank you’ to Rebecca Michaels for catering a Christmas canapés and drinks party for around 50 people for a company I work with; The International Schools Partnership.

The canapés were scrumptious and plentiful and several of the guests commented on how good they were; a couple even saying that they were the best that they’d ever tasted.

The waiting staff were completely professional – always on hand when we needed them, but never intrusive.

Rebecca and her team coped marvellously with the tiny kitchen and cleared up perfectly, leaving everything spotless when they’d finished.

Having Rebecca there to take care of the food and drinks really took the pressure off the evening and helped make it a great success. She was a joy to work with; I will certainly use her services again and heartily recommend her to others.

Yours faithfully,

Rebecca organised a Baking Masterclass for my book club on Saturday. Whilst nibbling on beautiful canapes we learnt to cook five different cakes. Rebecca made it look so easy and shared loads of tips along the way! Whilst waiting for the cakes to bake we enjoyed a beautiful buffet of coronation chicken and salads. Then came the challenge of eating five desserts!! I managed two that evening and had the others the following day. They were delicious. Some of the comments from my friends on WhatApp were:

What an amazing evening
Thank you for such a fabulous evening, the baking class has left me inspired
Thank you for a wonderful evening, such good fun

To make sure we put the Masterclass into practice, five of us are going to cook a recipe each for the next book club so we can get to sample five desserts again. We are not optimistic ours will look or taste as good, but we will have fun practicing!

Thank you to Rebecca for all her hard work and expertise, we would definitely recommend Compliments Catering and hope to be in touch again in the future.

I would like to highly recommend Rebecca following a Baking masterclass that she ran at my house.
Her calm, ordered efficiency was wonderful. Plenty of top tips for baking success a full print out of all the recipes to pass around. The cakes, and delicious supper that she produced were very memorable.

Rebecca brought absolutely everything that she needed, I just provided the venue, plates, cutlery and oven – not forgetting Jan’s hungry friends!

Quantity and Quality was spot on, and all cleared up away with no trouble.

Would love to have her cater an event for me again in the future.

I attended a drinks party this week where Rebecca Michael was doing the catering. I have to say the canapes were some of the best I have EVER eaten.  I would highly recommend Rebecca to anyone who is looking for a caterer for a drinks party.

I was extremely impressed with the service I received from Shaun Overy Services when fixing a bathroom leak I had. David was a lovely chap and sorted my leak quickly and efficiently. He had the spare part I needed readily available and also triple checked the leak had stopped before allowing himself to leave. He was more than happy for me to watch as he fixed the issue (I’m always interested to know what they do) and kept chatting to me casually throughout which made me feel really comfortable.
Not only that, the office staff were great at keeping me informed and managing my expectations re when he could come as well as his eta on the day. Highly recommend.

I used Shaun Overy Heating and Plumbing for a gas safety certificate on a rental property which I own. The whole process was incredibly easy and professional from the initial meeting with Shaun, the follow up by Gosia and Jay in the office and the actual visit and certification by David. They allocated a time and date which suited me and followed up a couple of days before the visit and on the day to ensure all parties were in the right place at the right time – they were even early, something which is not usually expected in these sorts of appointments! I could not be more complimentary about the professionalism of David who was courteous, tidy and very efficient. I would highly recommend Shaun and his team to anyone needing heating, plumbing or gas services! Far superior to your average plumber.
