| June 2010 Hi Everyone!! May was a great month for us. We had some great weather for a lot of the month which made for some very busy weekends. Everyone seemed in the party mood as we went to 8 different BBQ’s in one weekend! I think the lads are fed up with burgers and sausages now! May started off with a big family event. The Family Day which included a lot of our equipment including our surf machine. Here is a picture of the event. |
 |
| The Month got more hectic for us with the end of year Ball’s. It was a really great atmosphere and all the students seemed to have a lot of fun with us. We supplied casino tables, candy floss, side stalls and jugglers/stilt walkers. Here are some pictures of the guys in action. |
 |
| Then it was on to the next Summer Ball. There were over 3000 people at the event with some great live acts. We were there with our Surf simulator, Pillow Bash and Bouncy Boxing. |
 |
| And finally to end... We try our hardest to deliver to customers no matter what the obstacle. We have driven through the snow, over the moors, and have had to get some of our heaviest equipment to areas that we didn’t think possible. So you can imagine the delight on our faces when a regular client of ours thought of an easier way to get our Fun Run into his back garden... BY FORKLIFT!!! |
 |
| A big thank you to Jon Bond for saving our lads from lifting the equipment over your hedge (and for the cheese sandwiches). That's all for this month. We will have more photo sections added again this month so watch this space!!! |
| May 2010 Hello again everyone! Well the diary is filling up nicely for the summer. We are very busy with weddings this year which is great news. We had a great time during April. We provided entertainment for an annual Joy Weekend. Visit our photos section to see more of the event. |
 |
| We have been busy this month with a lot of repeat customers from last year which has been really nice to see. The weather has been great and we have been out every weekend in April at garden parties.
Our Scalextrics has become popular lately. Loads of our clients and the public have all hired it out this month. As you can see we have had to add to our selection of cars to keep up with demand. We now have cars ranging from Mini Coopers to Formula 1 cars. We also have more cars on order, more photos of them to come. |
 |
| We had a great Casino night in Plymouth at the end of the month. We supplied Roulette, blackjack and a poker table.
Finally, we would like to welcome our new member of staff, Alex Hall. Alex has come into the company to help us run the upcoming events as we are getting busier every month. That is everything for this month everyone. Next month we have the fun day and graduation events so watch out for new photos sections over the next month. |
| April 2010 There goes another busy month at What a Giggle!!!! We have still been very busy for the time of year. We have also been taking a lot of bookings for the summer which is great news. We have been busy with local student unions this month. Here are pictures of the students having fun on our inflatable twister and scalextrics. |
 |
| What a Giggle sponsored the match ball at the Plymouth Argyle vs. Bristol City game this season. It was a chance to watch a good game of football and treat clients and friends to an evening of hospitality at Home Park. Our Operations Manager Chris Pyne was presented with a signed ball and Graham Kingdom and Tim Barnett handed over the Match Ball to the officials on the pitch. |
 |
| What a Giggle are also sponsors for the Mayflower under 15’s football team. The lads have done really well this season; they have reached the cup final and are in contention for promotion. Alex went to watch a recent game and got a team photo with the lads sporting the What a Giggle Logo on the shirts. Good luck for the rest of the season guys. |
 |
| That’s everything for March. April is a busy month for us with some big events with some of our regular clients so watch out for next months blog. Have a great April everyone, back soon! |
| March 2010 We’ve had a great month, it started by me going to watch the Exeter Chiefs so I could meet Neil Clarke on his 100th games for the club, our sponsored player or the 2009-10 season. |
 |
| We are very proud to be working with Cancer Research with myself (Alex) on the committee as the entertainment chair, for the Plymouth Relay 2010. Check it out and sign up www.cancerresearchuk.org/relay/venues/plymouth/ What a Giggle was delighted to be part of the 2010 launch in Plymouth City Centre last week, with our equipment, PA system and marquee! |
 |
| When we were booked for the Brixham Marina party we never in a million years expected it to be a fancy dress party, Rita (our Rodeo Bull) didn’t know which way to turn, even the boxing ring was blushing! But, they did look amazing, so well done for making the effort and for making our lad smile! ;-) |
 |
| Plymouth has a brand new sound to the city… 106.7 FM Radio Plymouth. When we were invited to the launch party, keeping in mind that we go to a lot, we didn’t quite know what to expect, but it was magic, the presenters cutting some shapes on the dance floor! Simon, really was there any need for that, wow! But, I did meet Biker Dave, ha ha! |
 |
| Thanks again to all our clients for a fantastic start to the year, we’re so pleased with how things are planning out! Peace |
| February 2010 Well January was a crazy month...! We had a great time doing refreshers weeks, students can drink more than fish! We had Stan the bagpipe man bring in new year for them (on Jan 18th ha ha), here’s a photo of Stan before the gig, looking good I must say! We also had a wicked fireworks display and balloon drop to bring in the new year! |
 |
| After a gig one night I was hungry (as I often am) so dropped into Mc Donald’s at 02.15 to see the funniest thing I’d seen in a long time, a man was walking his girlfriend though the drive through as she wanted a burger following a night out in town, I had to take a photo to show you.! ha ha |
 |
| We had a great night in the Plymouth mall a week or so ago and I would like to thank all the H&M and M&S staff for their support... sorry you sucked on the Rodeo Bull (Bucking bronco). |
 |
| Pillow bash has been really popular this winter, it’s been everywhere.! Its going down a storm at clubs, pubs and colleges as you can see of the attached. However, it’s also been in Plymouth City Centre along with the Rodeo bull (Bucking Bronco). |
 |
| The England vs. Wales game in the 6 nations was excellent last weekend.! We had a big screen and bar up for the event, along with tea, coffee and taxi’s before anyone emails in.! ha ha. Can England now lift the grand slam...?
Peace. |
