"Hi Steve, thought I would drop you line to say a massive thank you for hosting the Oyster Festival last Friday at Hardwick Hall (and of course the Lobster Fest in May) As always, you were first class, and took any worries away from me and the team on the day.

This is the sixth year in a row you have hosted for us (I think you can safely say you have passed the audition!) I thought it was about time I told you how much we appreciate what you do for us on our events. The whole show was a great success, and everyone agreed that Patrick Kielty was superb as our guest comedian.

Before you put anything in your diary for 2010, make sure the 7th May and 10th September are down for us for the Oyster Festival and Lobster Fest. It wouldn't be the same without you! Best wishes, John."
