Dear Braam, Paisley and Frederick.

 

Thank you so much for the wonderful evening you arranged for my friends and I on Saturday evening.  We felt thoroughly spoilt, and I cannot tell you how much we enjoyed it.  The food was delicious and my table has never looked as beautiful.

 

Paisley and Frederick, good luck with the last couple of weeks of your course, and I wish you both well for your future – wherever in the world it may take you.

 

Please find attached a few of the pictures of Saturday.  

 

Thank you once again / Weereens baie, baie dankie

 

Kind regards,

Sandra Chapman – Butler Graduate 17th January 2013

 

It seems hard to believe that we started this journey only eight weeks ago. We certainly packed a lot into this course and we are all leaving with a multitude of extra skills and definitely some new friends.

I have to say that I also like myself a little more than I did at the beginning of the course. It has taught me how to listen more (when I turn up my hearing aid), to be more tolerant of others and I have a lot more social graces.

And who would have thought the word “excellent” could be so powerful.


Mr. Newton Cross,

 

I think you are a wonderful teacher, I think you did a fantastic job over the past 8 weeks and your energy, passion and commitment was a credit to you. Your determination to teach us how to deliver the best butler service possible was apparent and tangible. You definitely went the extra mile and it was greatly appreciated. Thank you. Sandra Chapman


Mr. Coetzer

 

Thank you for all the wonderful photographs that you so diligently took of all of us during the course. There are so many memories that each of us can treasure for a lifetime. Sandra Chapman


Mr. West

 

Thank you for all your hard work and all the tasks that you so tirelessly got on with behind the scenes. Your efforts did not go unnoticed. I am sure I can extend a special thank you on behalf of the butlers at house Bradley with whom you had the opportunity to create a special bond. Sandra Chapman


Mrs Wiese

 

Mrs Wiese, another true lady. Mrs Wiese and I got to know each other on the telephone during the process of booking for this course. If the truth be told I think I drove her a little crazy. Thank you Mrs Wiese for putting up with me. You are the best !  Sandra Chapman


Hi SABA

 

Just thank you so much to your guys and girls for being there last night. I really think that you were the catalyst that made the whole evening spectacular because we were watching the ladies faces as they arrived. One lady told me she felt like she was the queen because nobody ever treated her like that before.

 

So I just think it was spectacular. We couldn’t have done it without you. Please convey my thanks to the entire team. They were all so professional and they really did you proud.

 

All the best.

Thank You

Kind Regards

Margaret Hirsch
