Our company has recently been bought and been rebranded ... as such all the company colours have now changed.
I have been given the wonderful task of throwing out all the "old branded" items. I have come across several boxes of silk ties ..... I have had to removed the company name tag from the back of the tie and am suppose to "give them to charity".
If anyone thinks they may be able to sell some of them at a fundraiser / charity shop / etc please let me know and I'll send some to you.
They aren't the most exciting looking things ... they are nave blue with the chemical structure of our product embroidered on them :Crazy: however they are very good quality 100% silk.
I will put up a picture later when I get home.
-
You could try a couple in the Christmas auction too :shify: :shify:
-
I will Gill but I have about 100 of the wretched things :evillaugh:
-
100 LOL..................ummmmmmmmmmmmm tie some together and then attach some feathers,,,,,,,,,,,,,,that will be available in the shop any day now............and they could become the latestest cat toy :rofl: :rofl:
-
You wait til you see what they look like .... :sick: .... they are "different" that's for sure. I'm sure someone will like them but not exactly my cup of tea.
I have given 20 of them to one of the ladies that's works with me to sell at the next Nottingham CP "open day" ... I'm sure some of the old boys will pay £1 for a silk tie.
-
As promised here is a picture of the ties .... I have about 140 of them so if you would like any please let me know ... surely someone can sell them (they are all in sellophane wrappers)
-
Oh my goodness, whats the design , it sorta looks a bit tigerish ;D
-
LOL .. the design is X-ray chrystallography of the structure of recombinant human serum albumin :-: (well you did ask :rofl: ).
Our product Recombumin (is a recombinant human serum albumin) ( http://biopharmaceuticals.novozymes.com/recombinant-products/albumin/recombumin/ )

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: it's whaaaaaat
-
Oh my , I think I will stick to, it looks tigerish :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
-
I assume from the lack of response I am going to end up giving this ties to the "white elephants".
-

Mary

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: I think you've had too much sun Mary!!!!!
-

-
I think you're right Sam - we aren't used to it!!
Oh my God - what have I started - someone wants them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mary
-

Why do you want them??? I have some in a bag in the garage.
-
Why didnt you put some in last years auction?
This years is approaching far too quickly >:(
-
I have to say, I really like the design. It looks like abstract dragons to me :wow: and very classic colours as well. It would make up into a rather attractive skirt or similar, if only I could sew ...

:P :P :P :P :P to all you doubters out there .... Emily not only wants the ties but has a good use for them!!! :rofl: :rofl:
-
Only took close to 2 years though eh :evillaugh:
-
Oh good, I hope she is not thinking of a noose or anything :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
Did we sell any in the auction, I cant remember now LOL
-
Yes it's taken 2 years ... and No we didn't sell any in the auction (I forgot to list em :innocent:)
LOL ... I don't think she's gonna make a noose Gill. She's going t take them university and use them in a competition ;)
-
I can not believe those ties have gone - in fact I can't believe you still had them (in storage that is, not that I can't believe no one wanted them!) :rofl: :rofl: :naughty:
Mary
-
:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: Mary you'd be surprised at the stuff I have ..... I am, what my mother refers to as, a horder! :rofl: :rofl: I hate throwing anything away if it's not broken (hence the reason I've never moved house .... the fear that I might actually have to part with some of my "junk"!)
-
Gosh, you had those longer than I've been married!
-
Must admit Sam - I tell my mum off and I do exactly the same thing. You wouldn't believe there was only me and Bonnie in my house. A young girl at work is moving into her 1st flat next week and I took her loads of kitchen things in to work today - she was over joyed bless her.

I wore black pencil skirt to work the other day and everyone commented on how lovely it was .... you should have seen their faces when I told them it was something I used to wear to college when I was 18 ..... I'm now 41 ;) (and yes it still fit's me perfectly :innocent:)
Now if that isn't proof I never throw anything out I don't know what is! LOL
-
In moved with all my
rubbish very personaal things and took about 150 plus boxes LOL
-
Only thing that would fit me from when I was 18 would be my school TIE :rofl: :rofl: Couldn't resist that one Sam!!
You lucky thing you.

I have gotten rid of 20 of these so far at a £1 a time and used some as tombola booby prizes
-
Excellent ... so pleased you have found a use for them ... even if it is a "booby prize" :evillaugh:
