| | Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. | March 2011 |
| Once again, we have discovered a competitor trying to promote their event by copying and stealing our images and décor. This is the third time this has happened in the last couple of years with ‘Area 51’, ‘Hype’ and ‘Event Theming’ all blatantly attempting to copy our décor and claim it is their own, self-created masterpiece.
It is an eternal catch 22 situation. The more of our product we feature on-line, the more of our décor we are exposing to the world enabling competition to try and emulate our ideas. In a supposedly ‘creative’ industry, it baffles us how many utterly uncreative event companies there are.
Our message to potential customers is this. We design our décor and we create our décor. This way we know that no other events company can obtain this décor apart from hiring it from us. As a result we find ourselves in quite a niche market but are very proud that we have carved our own path through this industry so far. We also acknowledge that we were greatly helped in the early days by the work done by Temple Décor.
If you want truly original décor and concepts then we are for you. If you want mass manufactured décor and theming then there are plenty of companies that will provide this for you cheaply. As ever in life, you get what you pay for.

| | Planet Gold are looking for high profile, influential individuals to support The West Country Olympics 2012. | November 2010 |
| The West Country Olympics is a sporting event concept that will unite the West of England through rustic sport in the year of the 2012 Olympic Games. The games will consist of a mix of traditional and bizarre games set in the countryside and suitable for non-athletes. They will help unite communities and raise money for charity whilst allowing everyday folk to become part of the Olympic celebrations.
During the early part of 2012, a series of regional heats will take place, whereby each region selects its team of Olympians to compete in the West Country Olympic Finals. These will take place over a three day period at a major West Country venue or festival site immediately prior to the opening of the main London Olympic Games.
The games are open to absolutely anyone to enter. Unlike the main Olympics, we are not expecting teams to consist of super dedicated and focused athletes. We expect the common man and woman to take part with success expected to go to those who have an element of innate sporting talent, a good eye, good luck, strength and speed.
The actual games will include a mix of traditional, rustic and bizarre sports such as haybale hurdles, welly throwing, bog snorkeling, mangold hurling, tug of war, cross country running (short and long distance), haybale hammer, human sheep herding, traditional ploughing, scything and wild swimming.
In order for these games to reach out to and unite communities, we will require the cooperation of key West Country individuals, local councils and organisations. There will be some wonderful opportunities available for sponsorship and fund raising. At this stage, we are appealing for key, influential individuals with strong links and passion for the West Country to get in touch with us to discuss the games in more detail. If you are that person then please call Will Lawton of Planet Gold Events on 01249 782782. |
