Unbelievable...

Did you know it is only 181 days to Christmas - time is shifting on and we at Legal-Island have so much to cram in before then that really I don't have time to chat for long today. Never mind Christmas, it is only 129 days to our first Annual Review at the Red Cow in Dublin with 4 more to follow across November in NI and ROI- keep your eyes peeled at www.legal-island.com for booking details.

Good deeds...

Last week Arnold and James helped out at the MS offices in Belfast by painting - both are available for painting at weekends if any of you need any painting done - I will be booking them first so join the queue.

Sharon was helping out at Antrim Primary school sports day and had a wonderful with the children plus she got a t-shirt - everyone loves a new t-shirt.

What you need to do next....

If you are like me and hate to miss out on a good day out, get yourself onto our website at www.legal-island.com and when your boss asks what you would like for a Christmas present, you will be able to give him a list of Legal-Island events well worth attending - Happy Christmas from all at Legal-Island!!!
