Barbara represented Fragrances of Ireland on Radio 1's 'The Business Show's Sports Day' last Saturday and did us proud. For their end of season show they celebrated with a Sports Day. As part of the Comets, captained by former Rugby Captain Ciaran Fitzgerald, Barbara competed in the egg & spoon, hurling relay, penalty shoot outs and tug of war...although the winning trophy was stolen from their grasp with some dodgy numbers on the tug of war, a great day was had by all.

We also had our very own World Cup draw here in the office – based on the remaining 16 countries in the competition. All very exciting and lots of fun, and whoever’s team gets to the final and wins, has a nice money prize to take away with them! (It won’t be me anyhow – I had USA!!!!)

Still basking in sunshine here in Ireland which makes life a little brighter all round. Take a look at the shot below of poppies dancing in the summer breeze just outside our offices – we are so lucky to have the opportunity to appreciate nature – and right on our doorstep!
