Morning Nina
Thank you very much for a superb evening on Friday. All your staff were incredibly efficient and we are very happy with how things went off. Please pass on our thanks to all the team involved.
When you have had a chance to reconcile everything, please can you send me a statement with the revised costs as agreed (hiring, F & B etc) for 1500 pax with a reduction from that for the bar bill.
Many thanks again

Dear Chris and Jeanne,

I just want to say thanks for everything that was done for the BMW group last week. I want to make special mention of Nina Pieters - she was absolutely wonderful! Nina organised and handled many requests for our group with a smile and lots of patience. I feel she is a special asset to the Palace.

Wishing you and your families a Happy Christmas and a wonderful New Year.


Best regards,
Giovanna

Hello Nina,

As you may well be aware there were 90 rooms of Portuguese incentive winners with the Mapfre group in, in April. The person who looked after them I met with at Indaba, Reno Mauricio of Across Africa.

I would like to pass on his appreciation of the way you handled yourself and the group during their stay at Sun City. He was very complimentary and it is always good to get this type of feedback,

Thank you for all your hard work,
Best Regards

Subject: Day of Pleasures - thank you

Dear Nina
A huge thank you for all your help over the last few months with the Day of Pleasures Woman's Day event.  You really did an outstanding job and it was a pleasure working with someone so on the ball.  I can only apologise for the issue with Otto which I will be tackling this week.
Our client was very happy with the event so it's a given that we will be hosting the show next year again.  I do hope we can work together (if you have the patience!)
Thanks again to you and your team
Please send any remaining invoices to me and we will handle this week.
Regards

Dear Natalie,
hi there.
Just a short note to let you know that I was very happy with Nina Pieters, the lady in Sun City who was my contact person in connection with the Anthos-Demedis Incentive.

Nina was from the very beginning committed and ready help and assist wherever she could - she never said that something was not possible (a rare attitude).
She returns phone calls - even after 7pm in the evening . I felt very comfortable dealing with her and when the group arrived in Sun City she was there - available the whole time, no question too much, no mountain too high.
South Africa needs more people like her.

And I think that if someone does a good job, one should talk about it. Congratulations to Sun International for employing her.

Ciao and kindest regards

Subject: Feedback from Friday 18 August

Hi Nina
On behalf of Hay House I would like to thank you and your team for all they did on Friday 18th at our Gordon Smith Event.  Please thank Nasif and Edward and ask them to pass on our appreciation to their colleagues.
We have received some negative comments this week about the quality of the sound - apparently it was not so good at either side of the audience; I was sitting in the centre at the back, where there was no problem. 
I hope that we will be back for further events with our authors in the future.
With kind regards
Jane
