2012 – what a treasure trove for culture – a diamond, 64 golds, 60 silvers, 62 bronzes and a $120,000,000 painting.* Sadly, these riches didn’t quite translate across the British economy, and as we end the fourth year of recession, RRA finds the construction industry still struggling.
But, it is the season of goodwill and Christmas cheer, so let’s look to 2013 and hope it will bring the treasures of health, happiness and prosperity.
To start the goodwill we are giving away a bottle of Veuve Clicquot Champagne to one lucky Santa Spotter – simply view our website – www.rraarchitects.com, and find the hidden Santa. Email us, with Santa’s correct location, and a statement using no more than 140 characters saying:
We like rra because…
Email answers to: santa@rraarchitects.com and we will pick a winner at random from the entries. All entries must be received by 24th January 2013; the winner will be announced in our January newsletter. Witty statements will be used in our RRA twitter feeds – so it’s an opportunity to get creative and get a mention in the New Year.
Although it’s the holiday season, we are always open for business, so if you wish to discuss a new project, or have a query regarding an existing one, please contact us at the office.
Thank you all for your continued support and we wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
*2012 what a year for Britain… Olympic medals 29 Gold, 17 Silver, 19 Bronze plus Paralympics medals 34 gold, 43 Silver and 43 Bronze… not forgetting Britain’s architects too many of whom did a great job building the Olympic buildings. Source https://www.london2012.com
