The Countryman Inn, Shipley, West Sussex

The year has kicked off with a series of food-related designs that have positively teased our taste buds, and gently awoken them from their feeble detox attempts. Oh you only live once! And when you read what culinary delights we have been pouring into readable and browse-able formats, you too will succumb to their yummyness!

We are proud to announce that the Countryman Inn website is now live. Click here to read all about this fantastic rural award-winning eatery with a mouth-watering menu that is dripping in countryside charm, where you can even book a table online!.

Back to sunny Worthing … We don’t let a few planks of wood on the beach get in our way! The new Fish Factory and Food menus are fresh off the press. Keep your eyes peeled for their new website which is in our creative hands as we speak. If you can’t wait for the website to go live, then phone 01903 227780 (Food) or 01903 207123 (Fish Factory) to book a table so you can take a look at what’s on offer in Worthing’s most renowned restaurants.

Food and The Fish Factory, Worthing

Remember that magazine called Coastliners that we launched for Stagecoach last year? Well, it’s been turning quite a few heads as more and more people have been turning its pages. Now it’s won the ‘Marketing Campaign of the year’ award 2007. Here’s what Stagecoach had to say:

I am very pleased to inform you that Stagecoach South has won the ‘Marketing campaign of the year’ award 2007 for our ‘Cruise along the Coast’ entry. The award was presented at the UK Bus awards ceremony held yesterday in London. Obviously the ‘Coastliners’ magazine has been well received by our customers and staff along the route and played an important role in our entry, so thanks to you guys for your help and assistance with this….long may the success continue!

Steve Thorpe, Stagecoach South.

Worthing Business AwardsWorthing Business Awards

OK. We know that the Worthing Business Awards took place back in October … And our excuse for the delay in writing about this event? The Brand Surgery has been so crammed with patients needing urgent cures for their businesses (namely rebrands and new websites) – that we overlooked reporting on the staggering success of the Worthing Business Awards. If you didn’t know this, The Brand Doctor sponsored the category, ‘New Business of the Year’. And the winner was … www.takeawaymenu.com.

If you want to see more photo evidence from the evening, log onto www.worthingfirst.org.uk. Incidentally – the Worthing First logo (behind ‘The New Business of the Year’ winners – photo above) was designed by The Brand Doctor. The excellent photography is by Graham Franks (www.grahamfrankspics.co.uk). Photos top, Jacqui Moore, Vicky Vaughan, Nick Peters and Gay Richardson. Middle, Vicky Vaughan and the winners, www.takeawaymenu.com. Bottom – What has the doc been up to?

CHICHESTER FRANCHISE OFFICIALLY LAUNCHED

Vicky Vaughan, Managing Director of The Brand Surgery formalised the launch of the first Dial-a-Hubby franchise in the UK. Simon Cook, pictured above, receiving a bottle of champagne and keys to his bright new van from Vicky (PINK champagne of course). Go to: http://www.dial-a-hubby.com.

If you don’t know this, Dial-a-Hubby does everything from turning mattresses to un-flatpacking furniture to fitting ovens! I totally recommend Dial-a-Hubby who fitted a brand new integrated microwave oven for me recently. Dial-a-Hubby are extremely reliable, friendly and left the place tidy. Phone 01903 501121 if you live in the Worthing area. And if you are in Chichester, call 0845 680 0814. If you live outside this area then why not consider setting up a franchise in your area.

Mrs Black, Chichester Dial-a-Hubby’s first customer, is pictured below receiving flowers from Vicky Vaughan, MD of The Brand Surgery.

FONTWELL RACES

What a day! In the spirit of true British weekend weather! If you were not brave enough to venture out, you missed out on seeing MP Tim Loughton in his Crocodile Dundee outfit.

If you did come to the Fontwell races – the racing results were as follows! This is just in case you didn’t actually see any racing because you stayed in the luxurious WARM and DRY marquee supplied by www.partyonthegrass.com, whilst munching on posh vol-au-vents and fish balls (a delicacy I promise) kindly supplied by Andrew Sparsis of Food and The Fish Factory, Worthing … More photos will follow in due course

WORTHING CHURCHES HOMELESS PROJECT

At the RED Corporate Golf Day, The Brand Doctor team bid and won many items at the charity auction in aid of Worthing Churches Homeless Project, including a Corporate Golf Day for 20 people, two golfing breaks and a make-over with Gay Richardson of Style me Confident. Vicky Vaughan, Managing Director of The Brand Doctor decided to pay a visit to one of WCHP’s day centres, St. Clare’s Day Centre, to see what goes on.

Vicky said, “I was embarrassed to discover that I have lived and worked in Worthing for ten years and didn’t realise the extent of the homelessness problem. I for one, am guilty of walking past the homeless and not reaching into my pocket because I fear my hard earned cash (that I have left after multiple taxation) will be spent on alcohol and drugs! What will I do next time I pass the homeless? Probably the same but I will feel much less guilty because I will be helping them out in another way.”
