First Sight Inspection

We are delighted here at LNYDP that it is our favourite time of the year, Sight Inspection time. We have just had our very first Sight Inspection and we all had a truly great time with John Roseboom (JD) and Amanda Merriman from the magnificent Sarasota High School. John very kindly shared these kind words with us regarding their trip. 'I believe I speak for us both when I say that we had a GREAT time. The hospitality and dedication from all your staff was top notch. I want to personally thank all of you for your time and making this huge concession for us.'

On behalf of LNYDP we would like to say to John and Amanda it was a great privilege and we look forward to welcoming you back over the New Year.

In fact this picture brilliant portrays what Alfie has been doing most the week!! Sleeping!! In fact in the rain he refuses to go outside!!  Outrageous I know but in truth I can't really blame him!!

Happy Friday all you lovely LNYDP fan's!! For those of you in the UK, only hours to go until the Bank Holiday!!! Yayyyy!!!!

This week has been rather lovely in many different ways. The first being the glorious sunshine we have been having and the second being the start of the LNYDP Sight Inspections. Of course it goes without saying that it has been a  fantastic week with the Alfster too!! In fact he even learnt to read....(More on that to follow below!)

The Thistle Euston makes it's mark

LNYDP is delighted to announce the arrival of a new hotel into its Itineraries. The Thistle Euston is the new arrival and what a hotel. Amazing location and even more gorgeous inside surroundings! I was fortunate to have visited the Thistle Euston today and can tell you hand on heart it is a great hotel and simply magnificently located. P.s. My personal tip would be to pop onto the station forefront and grab a box of Krispy Kreme doughnuts from the official outlet!! AMAZING!!

Just to show you the magnificence of this splendid new LNYDP Hotel, we have camera footage of just the kind of antics that happen locally to the Hotel. This is genuine footage from the last week and it really is a great place to be! (Click on the below link)

Farewell Francis!! (Sad Face)

Sadly the time has come for Francis to depart and head of to Madrid to complete his Masters degree in Real Estate! Of course we had to have a farewell picture with the Team, sadly Theresa was unable to be in the picture as she very kindly volunteered to act as Photographer. A great few weeks with Mr. Francis and we look forward to welcoming him back in a couple of months when LNYDP really kicks off in style!! Farewell Francis and Gracias!! 

 

What a team! P.s. I think Alfie was nibbling Sara's finger!! Sorry Sara!! 

Alfie Can Read!!!!

No LNYDP awesome fans you did read that right!! The other day we caught sight of the amazing and superbly handsome Alfie reading a magazine! Now I know I am a proud dog dad but frankly this had to be included as at just 6 and a half months old this is seriously good going! P.s. I do have proof....(Check out the pic below)!

Hello all incredible LNYDP fans!!


Firstly let me apologise to all LNYDP fans for my two week Hiatus! I must confess I have not been working as I was holidaying with my gorgeous girlfriend in the stunning Port Andtrax (Majorca). Check out the amazing view (below) from the apartment we stayed in! What a way to wake up in the morning...Anyway I am sure you will all be delighted to know I am back and super refreshed for LNYDP!! 

The 2015 Countdown Begins

So we are now all stations go for LNYDP 2015. The weekly meetings have begun!! Now this was quite something after holiday time, what a meeting! The great and good of LNYDP all presented themselves in majestic style. The ideas flowed and the creative juices were running. It was a creative paradise. It just makes me super excited for this year's LNYDP 2015. It really is going to be the biggest and best event ever!! Below are certain points that I could really use feedback on: Merchandise wise what Items would you like to see available? LNYDP Pins, Patches, Soccer Balls, Cufflinks, Earings, I-Phone Covers, Magnets, Keyrings....Or any other Merchandise Items you would lime to see offered? 

Also be sure to vote on the LNYDP Facebook Poll (Above the link to this Blog) as to who you would like to see from LNYDP Mews headquarters model the LNYDP Onesie!! Who will it be, Bob Bone, Malcolm Chalk or even Sara Marinoni!!! You decide......

Lizzie and Sara Updates

The super duo of lovely ladies from LNYDP Lizzie and Sara, if you remember from the last Blog, had done an Adobe Illustrator course. True to form, these supreme ladies they did not rest on their superior laurels. Oh no!! They are now experts at Adobe in Design too having completed a master and advanced course. These girls, words frankly surpass me! They are truly supremely talented and gorgeous to boot! We felt it was only right to have a congratulatory photo which Malcolm and Alfie (excuse my rather hip lingo) Photobombed. (See Below)

Blog Catch Up News

Now technically this is both Alfie and I's LNYDP blog, however Alfie has not really featured all that much this week. Therefore I think Its important to add a few words in here and dedicate this week's Song of the Week to the super handsome Alfie! Alfie is still going strong with Mischa (The Wheaton Terrier). The two are loving each others company and well frankly Alfie has done well for himself lol!! Next week will feature more Alfie gossip, that's a promise!! 

We Love you ALfie!!! Sooo handsome!! Just like his human dad haha!! 

Song Of The Week

Special dedication to our awesome LNYDP mascot, Alfie. Song chosen by the awesome Theresa Davis.
