Our unique gifts can even be used to celebrate personal achievements: setting up a dream business, running a marathon, climbing a mountain or sailing an ocean... in fact, absolutely anything at all.
We would love you to share your special occasion stories with us. It could be about any special date or achievement that you, a friend or relative has celebrated.
If we like your story, we'll feature it on our website alongside a photo of the dawn on that special day.
Ella's first day - 9th May 2005
The day our beautiful Ella was born was the happiest day of my life. It was two hours before Ella arrived that my wonderful wife Lis was in a birthing pool going through very regular contractions and I was feeling awkward and inadequate but trying to do all I could to help her. At 2pm I was aware of a familiar tune wafting from the radio sitting on a shelf near the door. Lis, full of colour calmly leaned back, re focused, smiled at me and asked me to turn it up. For the next 15 minutes, Lis listened to her favorite radio program, reducing her contractions from one every 2 minutes to only having one small one while listening happily to the Archers.
