Read some useful information on BUYERS GUIDE when making a decision on what marquee to purchase.
| What size of marquee do I need? |
| When looking to buy a marquee the first thing to do is decide what size(s) of marquee you need, only then can you decide which range of marquee is most suitable for you.
There are several ways of calculating this:
|
| The following size guide shows the capacity (seated or standing) or each size of marquee. Size guides can vary greatly; this is due to the variety of ways a marquee can be used. For example a 6x12m marquee can seat 70-80 people at round tables but if you allow for buffet tables and/or a dance floor then the capacity is reduced.
Click on the size marquee you require and you will then be taken to the ranges we offer in that size of marquee. If you are in any doubt over the size marquee you require please contact us with your requirements and we would be more than happy to put together some sample layouts for you. |

by theadmin on Mar.22, 2014, under Blowers, Industrial
Searching for a company that repairs industrial equipment including Aerzen blowers USA, I came across IBS Blowers – Industrial Blower Services based in the UK serving the industry with Industrial Vacuum Services; impressively they have recently expanded and opened offices in America; for information about their global expansion view IBS Blowers UK and Industrial Blowers USA.
Amazingly not many companies these days offer anything for free however, IBS offer a FREE HEALTH CHECK for Industrial Vacuum Pumps they offer which is exactly the service our company requires from time to time. I completed the quick and easy form and within no time at all, assistance for the Free Health Check was on offer.
No hidden costs involved or any pressure a genuine offer from IBS Blowers – take advantage you have nothing to lose.
Lodge Brothers make such a difference within the community
by theadmin on Mar.21, 2014, under Funeral Services, Personal
Lodge Brothers Memorials Biggleswade love to share news including the community involvements, expansions, thanksgiving services, Memorials Addlestone and Memorials Ashford and many other branches within the Lodge Brothers family of branches.
AV Smith & Sons Say Farewell to Branch Arranger Sheila Sherwood
After just two and a half years with the company, Sheila Sherwood, Funeral Arranger at AV Smith & Sons, Hillingdon, is leaving to start a new career with British Airways at nearby Heathrow Airport. In her time with Lodge Brothers, Sheila has arranged just over 250 funerals. She has endeared herself to clients with her calm and empathetic manner, and her colleagues admire lively sense of humour and teamwork.
Her office is festooned with ‘thank-you’ cards from grateful clients and, as this web-site will testify, a whole raft of testimonials.
Our local vicar at St John’s Church, Hillingdon, Reverend Robert Harrison commented, “It has been an absolute pleasure working with Sheila; she has such a kind and caring nature that is so reassuring for bereaved families. She has been an integral part of the very fabric of Hillingdon village life and she will be sorely missed”.
Sheila said, “I have really enjoyed working for Lodge Brothers; the people are fantastic and the job is extremely satisfying, however, I just feel ready for a career move.”
DIY Marquee raising marquees to new heights
by theadmin on Mar.20, 2014, under DIY Marquee
As you may have noticed our website has changed, this is due to our expansion in to other ranges of marquees. We now have five ranges of marquees across 23 different sizes of marquee culminating in over 70 different marquees to choose from, we believe this means we have the largest range of marquees available for sale in the UK and hope to have the marquee to suit any requirement. We also now stock a heavy duty range of pop-ups and pagodas.
Our two new cheaper ranges probably won’t be of interest to you as a hire company – the party tent range including DIY Party Tent and Pop-Up DIY Marquee range uses PE fabric (only suitable for occasional domestic use) and our new Classic range is made using 500gsm PVC but without the features we believe are essential to hire companies – I wouldn’t recommend hiring out a 6m marquee without eave braces for example.
Our new Professional range should prove popular in the hire industry; it is based on our Commercial framework but with a heavier duty 650gsm PVC roof.
As always our new products and ranges come from feedback from customers (thank you) and our own experience. This is why we are one of the leading designers and suppliers of marquees in Europe. Which we’re quite chuffed about to be honest.
We always like to hear feedback regarding our marquees or website so if you have anything to add or any new product ideas please always send them along.
Eat healthy this summer
by theadmin on Mar.19, 2014, under Food and Lifestyle
With summer around the corner, the clocks have changed, days are becoming longer with excitement in the air. Everyone is preparing for the summer by getting their tan at a salon, frequenting the gym, people have taken to running and cycling along the Thames. What better way to get into shape than with some scrumptious unusual salads. I found these delicious summer salad recipes from Jamie Oliver, which were too good not to share:
SUMMER CHICKPEA SALAD
INGREDIENTS:
1 small red onion, peeled
1-2 fresh red chillies, deseeded
2 handfuls ripe red or yellow tomatoes
1 lemon
extra virgin olive oil
sea salt
freshly ground black pepper
410 g tinned chickpeas, drained, or around 4 large handfuls of soaked and cooked chickpeas
1 handful fresh mint, chopped
1 handful fresh green or purple basil, finely ripped
100 g feta cheese
Chickpeas are pretty under-used in this country, to be honest. In places like Morocco, Italy and Spain they are prized like our Jersey new potato. Still, we have a lot more choice now than we used to have. If you go to a Spanish deli or specialist counter, you will generally be able to find jars of cooked chickpeas in water and these are the ones you want to make this salad really good. They should look a little plumper than tinned chickpeas but, of course, both tinned ones or dried ones can be used successfully. This salad is a great one for making up as you go along; you can use different spices, sun-dried tomatoes and spicy chorizo sausages, for instance.
First of all, finely slice your red onion. Once that’s done, finely slice your chillies then roughly chop your tomatoes, mixing them in with the onion and chillies. Scrape all of this, and the juice, into a bowl and dress with the juice of half a lemon and 3 tablespoons of good extra virgin olive oil. Season to taste. Heat the chickpeas in a pan, then add 90 per cent of them to the bowl. Mush up the remaining chickpeas and add these as well – they will give a nice creamy consistency. Allow to marinate for a little while and serve at room temperature.
Just as you’re ready to serve, give the salad a final dress with the fresh mint and basil. Taste one last time for seasoning – you may want to add the juice from your remaining lemon half at this point. Place on a nice serving dish and crumble over the feta cheese.

SUMMER TOMATO AND HORSERADISH SALAD
sea salt
freshly ground black pepper
extra virgin olive oil
good-quality red wine vinegar
½ clove garlic, grated
2 teaspoons fresh horseradish, grated, or jarred hot horseradish
1 small handful fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely sliced
For this salad it’s great to try and get a whole mixture of different tomatoes, at room temperature, nice and ripe. Let them sunbathe on the window ledge if need be! Try and get hold of fresh horseradish – give your greengrocer a challenge to get some in.
Cut the bigger tomatoes into slices about 1cm/½ inch thick. You can halve the cherry tomatoes or leave them whole. Then sprinkle them all with a good dusting of sea salt. Put them in a colander and leave them for 30 minutes. What’s going to happen here is that the salt will draw the excess moisture out of the tomatoes, intensifying their flavour. Don’t worry about the salad being too salty, as a lot of the salt drips away.
Place the tomatoes in a large bowl and dress with enough extra virgin olive oil to loosen (approximately 6 tablespoons), and 1–2 tablespoons of vinegar, but do add these to your own taste. Toss around and check for seasoning – you may or may not need salt but will certainly need pepper. Add the garlic. Now start to add the horseradish. Stir in a couple of teaspoons to begin with, toss around and taste. If you like it a bit hotter, add a bit more horseradish. All I do now is get some finely sliced flat-leaf parsley (stalks and leaves) and mix this into the tomatoes. Toss everything together and serve as a wonderful salad, making sure you mop up all the juices with some nice squashy bread.
This salad is fantastic with roast beef, goat’s cheese or jacket potatoes. And to be honest, even if you put these tomatoes in a roasting tray and roasted them with some sausages scattered around them it would be nice.
Whether it’s delicious vegetarian or vegan recipes you’re after, or ideas for gluten or dairy-free dishes, you’ll find plenty here to inspire you.

Dukes of Daisy have a fantastic rent a friend service
by theadmin on Mar.18, 2014, under Companion Service
Are you a Daisy in need of a Duke to accompany you on a special occasion as a date? I often find myself in need of a date with no strings attached. As a career driven woman I don’t have time for a long term or any relationship at present, however there are times when I do need a partner to accompany me on a business dinner or weekend away. I found an agency who are not only affordable but reliable and honest in their approach in Rent a Friend service London.
I have a regular Duke whom I chose in the beginning because of his attributes and fun personality whom I regularly book a date with. I know what I am getting; there are no expectations and it’s simply a safe and affordable option to ‘needing a date” without having a relationship.
I encourage all my single friends to use the Dukes of Daisy rent a friend service and we have all experienced their professionalism and safe approach.
