City Limits Golf Opens.

Kopykat has just printed some promotional material for City Limits Golf which has just opened in Worship Street next to the Broadgate Tower. There are 16 Floodlit bays, a Pro Shop and tuition by PGA professionals. At the moment there are lots of opening offers on so why not pay a visit to their website is www.citylimitsgolf.comand see all the great deals available? We wish Tony Sherman and all the team all the best with their new venture.

Movember Prostate Cancer Campaign.

As well as printing the promotional material for Movember the guys at Kopykat decided to enter a team Tache of the Titans. We managed to raise over £1800 towards the Prostate Cancer Charity thanks to the generosity of clients and friends. We received donations from as far afield as Shanghai, Florida, Italy, Ibiza, Australia and New Zealand. When we started the fundraising effort we hoped we might reach £1000 but it easily exceeded that and we had a good laugh growing the moustaches as well, if you want to see the end result visit http://uk.movember.com/mospace/321872/

Blue Humour.

One amusing thing I noticed in Liverpool’s new shopping complex is that Everton FC have opened a new sports shop there and called it Everton Two so their postal address is Everton Two, Liverpool One. If only!

Liverpool One.

 Just paid a visit to Liverpool and booked in at the Staybridge apartments right next door to the new Echo Arena. The City has gone through an amazing transformation over the last 3 years, the Echo Arena holds 11000 people and is on the banks of the Mersey right next door to the historic Albert Dock and has leading artists appearing there. There is also the BT Convention Centre to compliment it, if it’s retail therapy and nightlife you are after the new Liverpool One shopping complex has it all, over 45 acres of land has been redeveloped and pedestrianised with all the leading brands having a base there, a number of leading hotel groups have also opened new hotels around the complex with the Hilton opening this month. Finally, if it’s champagne and luxury you like try Champu opened by Herbert of Liverpool, best known as the celebrity hairdresser, where you can be served with champagnes ranging from £60 to £1200 per bottle. Another great place is Alma de Cuba winner of the best bar, best restaurant and UKs best venue 2008. It is set inside the magnificent conversion of the former St Peter’s Catholic Church.

Cameras, lights, action.

Kopykat has recently had a few visits from different TV production companies so sometime next year we will feature in one of the leading reality TV shows albeit briefly, we can’t tell you what show until it’s been shown, last week we had a Nike advert shot and they wanted to film a poster being printed, we were happy to oblige in fact we told them to JUST DO IT, cheesy I know but we couldn’t resist it, then we had a visit from another TV show plate expectations who ordered menus and posters. Find out more on http://www.bbc.co.uk/tv/comingup/plateexpectations/. It follows up The Restaurant series two runners up Alasdair and James, as they go it alone as event caterers always minutes away from disaster in the show, they have since been taken under Raymond's wing, learning the trade at one of his top restaurants. Now it's time to see whether they can tell their caviar from their calamari as they cater for a different event each week. Rumour has it that Vince at Kopykat has applied for an equity card as he’s now featured on all three shoots!

Get ready for Movember.

Kopykat has just printed all the promotional material for the Movember annual month long celebration of the moustache, highlighting men’s health issues, specifically prostate cancer. The annual event started when 30 Mo Bros got together in a pub in Melbourne, Australia and took part in Movember. Mo Bros supported by their Mo Sistas start from November 1st clean shaven and then have the remainder of the month to grow and groom their moustache. Each Mo Bro effectively becomes a walking billboard for men’s health and via their Mo, raises essential funds and awareness for Movember’s men’s health partner – The Prostate Cancer Charity. At the end of Movember, a series of Gala Parties are held to thank Mo Bros and sistas for their fund raising efforts.

Last year across the globe 173,000 Mo Bro & Sistas got on board, raising more than £14 million across Movember’s men’s health partners globally. Over £30 million has now been raised globally for the fight against prostate cancer and depression in men. It will make men aware going forward of the risks they face, thereby increasing early detection, diagnosis and effective treatment.
