Happy 100th Birthday to Vera Lynn…. The forces “Sweetheart”…!!!!

Image result for dame vera lynn

Vera Welch was born on 20 March 1917 in East Ham, part of east London.  By the age of seven, Vera was singing in working men’s clubs.  When she turned 11, Vera took her grandmother’s maiden name of Lynn as a stage name.

In 1936, when she was 19, she had her first solo record – called Up the Wooden Hill to Bedfordshire. By the age of 22 she had sold more than a million records.  However, it was during World War Two that her reputation was made. She frequently sang to the troops at morale-boosting concerts, becoming known as “The Forces’ Sweetheart”. One off her most popular songs was “We’ll Meet Again” which was released in 1939.

She was appointed OBE in 1969, made a Dame in 1975, and a Companion of Honour in 2016.

What an amazing life this Lady has had.  Happy Birthday Dame Vera Lynn from Masterflex

Top O’ the morning to you

StPatricksDayHappy

Today, March 17th, celebrates the life and work of the patron Saint of Ireland, Saint Patrick.

Saint Patrick’s Day was made an official Christian feast day in the early 17th century and is observed by the Catholic Church, the Anglican Communion (especially the Church of Ireland), the Eastern Orthodox Church, and Lutheran Church.

The day commemorates Saint Patrick and the arrival of Christianity in Ireland, and celebrates the heritage and culture of the Irish in general. Celebrations generally involve public parades and festivals, céilithe, and the wearing of green attire or shamrocks. Christians also attend church services and the Lenten restrictions on eating and drinking alcohol are lifted for the day, which has encouraged and propagated the holiday’s tradition of alcohol consumption.

On St Patrick’s Day it is customary to wear shamrocks and/or green clothing or accessories (the “wearing of the green”). St Patrick is said to have used the shamrock, a three-leaved plant, to explain the Holy Trinity to the pagan Irish. This story first appears in writing in 1726, though it may be older. In pagan Ireland, three was a significant number and the Irish had many triple deities, a fact that may have aided St Patrick in his evangelisation efforts.

Get in touch with Masterflex, and let us know how will you be celebrating?

Will you be having a bet on the Cheltenham Gold Cup this week?

Do you have a special technique for choosing the winners?

Some people use favourite colours or funny names, and others look at the jockey, owner and form.

Everyone in the office and on the shop floor have chosen their horses and placed their bets. Fingers crossed.

Choosing hoses from Masterflex is much simpler.

Just tell us what is going through the hoses, the bore size and length you need, and we can recommend the correct product.

Chinese New Year 2017 will take place from January 28 to February 11

“Kung hay fat choy”

The year of the Rooster!!

Did you know that the Chinese celebrate their New Year by exchanging red envelopes with money inside to each other.  The red paper envelope is said to be the symbol of energy and it represents happiness and luck.  It is said to be impolite to open a red envelope in front of the person who has given it to you.
