This sounds great and we will be checking the dates to see if we can make it. One question Matthew - how do we prove the build date of our Portafolds? It does say that the aducicators want proof.

Cushions

Hi Matthew They're blue - same design as alexdundee has in the photos of his portafold on this site. As I said they're not pristine but would be really happy for you to take them. We are not a million miles from you so if you like we can meet halfway? You have our contact numbers so give us a ring a...
