News & Developments
There has been so much happening of late, its been quite difficult to update the blog at the right times! I apologise to my loyal readers worldwide. In fact I did do a check on who reads this, as far as the other side of the world, but also, in Russia, Hawaii and Africa. I hope its all good reading.
I thought I'd make a quick summary of photos to show whats been happening with Pickle PR and the achievements once again in the past month or so. I hope you enjoy!
Remember, Pickle PR can be contacted on picklepr@mac.com and on 07980 723212 at any time of the day or night.

In the mean time Im always available on 07980 723212 or picklepr@mac.com

Very pleased to note that friend to PicklePR and ultimately one of London's finest lifestyle stores got a great review as an 'eco' store in Central London, well done! In fact its often a favourate stop for me too! Whether its lamps, or a t shirt, I'd rather go there.

BuckStyle tell us men how it is.
Im pleasantly impressed with a wonderful review that my first ever client Hair&Jerome received in one of BuckStyle's first ever grooming reviews. The editorial team at Buck really have their finger the pulse, there hasn't been a lifestyle magazine like this that has impressed me in such a long time. Buckstyle.com is the first stop, go enjoy whats on offer including some rather innovative editorials!
Well done to the salon that is still on top form!
