Valentine’s Day has come and gone. For some of us, love would have been in the air! While for others a time to despair.

To help numb the pain, or relive the occasion our friends over at Kuati have launched a competition on facebook called “Valentine’s Day Funny Stories“.

This competition is open to anybody who has so much as blown a kiss on Valentine’s Day past or present.

To enter all you have to do is join the group “Valentine’s Day Funny Stories” and simply tell us your best, worst or funniest experience on Valentine’s Day.

A panel of judges will select 2 winners (male & female) they will receive a luxurious gift courtesy of kuati.

Also!

Invite your friends to take part in this competition and if they win, you will win a luxury gift prize just for referring them.

So the more friends you invite the more chance you have of winning.

All entries must be in before 25th February 2008 and the winner will be announced in this group and contacted via facebook private message on 3rd March 2008.

Good Luck!!!

Hatch is proud to announce that we will be participating in the 2012 London Olympics. Well, not exactly.

Sadly our Technical Director will not be lining up in the 100m final, however he and the rest of the Hatch team will be heavily involved in the creation of a website that will eclipse the phenomenal achievement of winning gold at the 2012 London Olympic Games.

This new and exciting project will showcase our three key areas of strength: web design and build, online strategy and online marketing.

Keep visiting our blog for regular updates regarding this intriguing project.
