June 2011

"thank you so much for supplying the Allen organ for my mother's funeral last week. I cannot describe the feeling as I arrived at the cemetery chapel and heard the strains of Vaughan Williams.....I only heard but a part, but what I heard will remain with me forever. One of the most difficult tasks I had was choosing the hymns, there were so many dear to our hearts, but the three that we eventually chose were undoubtedly the right ones, and accompanied with panache on a great sounding instrument. I shall have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone in a similar predicament to me.... With repeated thanks and best wishes"

February 2011

"Thank you very much for all your help with the organ for our recent graduation ceremonies. The ceremonies went extremely well this year, and we were particularly pleased, given the increase in numbers"  Kings College at the Barbican

Many,many thanks for all your hard work, help and support on Saturday. Thanks most of all for supplying such a splendid instrument! Without exception, everyone commented upon the organ and how magnificent it sounded - and most were taken aback that such an instrument could be put in a van and set up in such a short time. But that, of course, is a testament to your skill and expertise....The whole evening was a huge success and the organ was the star of the night in so many ways!

Churches together in Bexhill



Just a brief note on behalf of the diocese to say a very sincere thank-you to you and your team for your help at the Assembly last week. The result exceeded our expectations and to say that many people were impressed would be a considerable understatement.

After knowing your name and reputation for so many years and recommending you to others on the basis of what I had heard, it was good finally to meet you in person.

The next time we undertake something of the kind, we shall certainly know who to call on !
