Spring is finally here, but don’t let your guard down even though we have past the flu season in the UK! I like to top up my family with a variety of vitamins through all the seasons, taken on a daily basis. I am so pleased to be properly introduced to the range of Sambucol Black Elderberry by their PR!
Earlier in February, my sisters asked me to buy them 18 boxes of Sambucol Black Elderberry for them to take back to Singapore as it was so much cheaper in the UK. So I bought them through deals and managed to get three boxes for the price of two! My second sister was first introduced to Sambucol Black Elderberry for kids by their doctor to boost my twin nephews’ immune system. She then introduced it to my eldest sister and now the whole family is taking it!

Whether you have just moved into your new house or started a new business, come and commemorate with Signomatic. They are a sign manufacturer that allow their customers to customise their very own personalised signs in the material, colour and shape of their choice. Signomatic offer everything from small name badge signs and door signs to larger advertising signs, like banners, vinyl texts, decals and roll-ups.
I love making signs as helps things stand out from others and also looks well organised and professional than if it were handwritten. Also, the best way to get a unique look is by customizing it yourself. Why should your sign look generic like others! This is why I don’t usually get the signs from DIY stores! They either look too generic or sometimes, it doesn’t have what I want instore!
