"It's interesting though how many customers see any creature within their garden territory as an intruder .

Hi Chris

Thank you for all of your efforts helping to build the show and for putting on a magnificent display.

I've had good feedback from Trevor, Dave, Dan and Chris and it would be good to catch up when you've returned and you are refreshed from your break.

Kind regards

Thanks Naman, we take our social and ethical responsibilities very seriously at Marshalls and have worked very closely with our suplier in KOta over a number of years to ensure that No Child Labour is used, Living Wages are Paid and that effective Health and Safety proactices are in place in the production of our products.

I am noit saying this is not the case with youre company but that we have a detailed understanding of our supply chain with our current partner.

We also fund Hadoti a local NGO to run schools and medical centres in the areas we source materials from.

So for now I am happy to stay with my current Supply Partner in India.

Thanks

Chris
