That's @suzymiller, host and founder of Buzz Local Networking (and, let's face it, local celebrity) in the far right of the picture with @candidandy (Andrew Downing) in the background centre of pic. Other attendees included Mlke Grenville, Rebecca Lawrence of Innocent Vitamins, Dale Bulbrook of Village Cow and Matthew Knights of wiredthing.

Had a good time today at this month's Buzz Local Networking event at the Swan in Forest Row.

On this occasion, it was all about chocolate. Very good timing, what with Easter just around the corner. Emily Smith enlightened us on her yet-to-be-named chocolate company that specialises in hot chocolate with a difference. Instead of powder or syrup, her company sells chocolate on a stick that is dunked into hot milk. She told us the idea was inspired from the way she happened to be served hot chocolate when in Luxembourg.

Buzz Local Networking events are fun local business networking opportunities that I would recommend for all businesses in the Forest Row/East Grinstead area, and beyond. Often with business networking innitiatives such as this, one tends to bump into the same faces each time, but I am happy to report that every time I've turned up (I think I've been to all of them), I've met new people.

Translations can be a funny thing!

By WorldWidePR
. How robotic and unprofessional translations can really get you in trouble! The written word is a funny thing. It's a symbol of the sound you make with your voice. Different countries obviously have different sounds for the same object and actions - and that's tough enough, but you can really get into trouble if you only translate robotically (such as with translation machines) or without a proper (and especially professional) understanding of the language you are translating into. If you are looking to approach foreign markets and need to communicate in a foreign language, then you would do well to take into account the hundreds of hours that you have spend on your marketing campaigns, or the literature describing your product or service. To have this wasted with a poor translation can be an expensive mistake. Here are some mistranslations which are funny to read, but in a professional context you would not want to be on the other end of your enraged (or perhaps if you are lu

GT Recycling: A unique combination of green initiatives and human rights

By WorldWidePR
I was lucky enough to be given a tour of the Aylesbury-based firm, GT Recycling , by its founder William Souvatzoglou last Friday (1 April). The company's history and its activities are literally awe-inspiring. Not only is it of great benefit to the environment by preventing books, DVDs, clothes, metals and other item from going it landfill, but it is also of great benefit to the community with its numerous and generous donations to local charities. In addition, it has a heart-warming human rights success story to tell, as described very well in the 22/11/10 edition of the Business Herald , excerpted here: "Most of the staff come from the same town of Slovakia, called Levoca. According to William, they were being exploited by an unscrupulous employer based in Berkshire, until he took them under his wing. He said his staff are now fitting in well into the Aylesbury community and are embracing British culture. “Some of these people had been over here quite some time and had not
