On Halloween the lovely people at North Tea Power allowed us to exhibit our posters. All 8 prints were on display. The project has gone down really well so far, so a big thank you to all that have bought a print and made lots of money for charity. It’s not to late to buy one and are available to buy online at the Little Print Shop of Horrors

Congratulations Mike & Katrina on the arrival of little baby Jenson! So cute!!

On Tuesday night the Creative Spark team were lucky enough to join the Lady Boys of Bangkok at their spectacular show, in Manchester, for an evening of glitter, glamour and all-round entertainment. The night began with drinks & curry in the foyer, followed by the main event staged in a large tent. The show catered to all ages, with performances of songs by Rihanna, Tom Jones, Beyoncé  & even a colourful, alternative rendition of The Little Mermaid’s ‘Part of Your World’ classic. A good evening was had by all and we all left feeling dazzled by the show (and the wine)

This Saturday saw our team descend on Manchester Town Hall to celebrate Gemma and Al’s much-anticipated big day. It was a heartwarming ceremony with a rousing song from a group of Al’s students, an unorthodox reading of an ancient reptilian love story and of course the happy couple looking magnificent.

Afterwards we moved on to Stock Restaurant to savour the culinary delights of lobster ravioli and witness Al’s now-legendary speech-delivering talents.

A big congratulations to the new Mr and Mrs McColl, we wish you all the happiness in the world!

The Manchester United Premier Cup kicked off this week, it gives talented under fifteen year olds the chance to show off their skills and come up against other young footballers from around the globe. We launched a new site early in the year and have just launched phase 2 to coincide with the big kick off. We’re popping down this week to take in some of the action and to see if we can spot the next Robinho!
