Autumn

With Autumn coming in and the trees shedding leaves, the colours are getting lovelier by the day and people can get their tweeds out again (although readers of the Chaps magazine wear them all year round and would suspect they have some specially made swimwear for the summer).

Parties are coming and flowing and October, November and December announced to be busier by the day.

Events as usual are updated as they happen on http://www.jfdor.co.uk/current-events.php where you will find a calendar of all dates, something for everyone. French speaking evening,  Jazz evening, Networking, Seminars and more to come. By the way have you organised your Christmas party yet? Let me know if I can help, I have the best deals and the best venues around, anywhere.

Your success is my ambition.

Spring is on the way

Nearly half way through the first quarter of the year!

Sorry I have not updated this for some time now!

The reason was that I was actually asked to apply for a job that would have prevented me to do anything else but as luck would have it, I did not get it.

Luck as on reflection I am much better off by continuing enjoying myself and passing it on to you! So you are actually benefitting from it.

This said, please do remember that I am here for any events that you may have now or in the future.


I invite you to join my Networks on which there is a link on my website.
See The Network & GPN . 

There is a minimum subscription of £1 pcm on a recurring basis.

I will update events there and there may be the occasional direct email if I feel that you would benefit from this particular event.

I am an artist (painter) and do PR, Marketing, off market properties & Events. I love people, life and arts. Always looking on the bright side of life and love to meet people and have fun.

I very much look forward to seeing you again or meeting you soon.

All best wishes,

Jean-Francois.

PS: as this is lent at the moment I just remembered that dear old Bill who passed away several years ago used to give up Angostura Bitter for Lent, he was very fond of his pink gin...

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

I do hope you are well and I very much look forward to seeing you again in 2013.

I wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy and Prosperous New Year.
Peace, love, health, wealth and happiness.

October, November & December 2012

The leaves are starting to change colours, autumn is upon us and with it the prospect of Christmas (let me know if you need help with your party). 

It is getting colder so wrap up warm and live healthily.  I'd like to introduce you to Kyäni, a health product made with natural ingredients from Alaska providing you with a combination of vitamins, minerals, anti-oxidants and more, if you would like to know about it, come to a presentation and have a taste, this happens every Tuesdays in Chelsea. Please ask me for an invitation.

September was rather quiet in London, it seems that post Olympics, not many people wanted to go out, however I manage to award a price for the Arts Club Charitable Trust at the Mall Galleries for an excellent print made by Julia Gallego, heard Gareth Thomas about his struggle with coming out in the world of rugby, seen Thomas Houseago's great sculpture at Hauser Wirth in Savile Row, was invited for dinner at the Waldorf Hilton by a dear friend, met another one on the Terrace of the House of Lords, seen Julia Hamilton's work in her MA Fine Arts show, drunk Champagne at St Pancras courtesy of Q Hotel, seen Ilia Petrovic's 'Silent Dreams' exhibition a the Alpha Gallery, went to Global Pursuit at the Grosvenor House, seen 100% design, attended the private view of Neil Canning at the ING head office, had a great dinner at the Eccentric Club with a lot of friends, discovered Bel Canto restaurant on the edge of Hyde Park where all most of the waiting staff are opera singers, went to Internations at the Roof Garden and drunk the most expensive glass of Chardonnay at the Corinthia Hotel...

October started, we had a very successful exhibition at the New Cavendish Club at the beginning of October called Kaleidoscope as all artists were of different nationalities, media and style and this included me... I went to the launch of the Beaufort House Club, had a haircut by Sergio Gianasso in St Martin's Lane (let me know what you think about it when we see each others), seen Philip Firsov's exhibition in Warren Street & Gerry Fox's  at the Gallery Eleven on Eccleston Street, I went to the launch of Kyani in London see above and went back to Bel Canto to sample the delights (both culinary and auditory), I also had the honour to attend the Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation's Award Ceremony at the Science Museum in His Presence and the launch of a book in a Tattoo Parlour where people were in various state of dress and undress...

Do you know Pause? Well, if you don’t, in August, I’ll give you some reasons to go and discover that venue!

On July 3rd, we went to the roof of the Grange Hotel to celebrate the relaunching of the magazine Pride Life. Nice people, nice cocktails and a nice atmosphere were at the rendez-vous.

Le Cercle Francophone, The Network, and The Network Dinner were held at The Penthouse. If you need a venue in Central London that combines beautiful cocktails, a stunning view and tasty dishes, then you have to go there.

We went to the World Pride on July 7th. We walked through Baker Street, Oxford Street, Regent Street and Haymarket to finish at the Whitehall. Positive East, we’ve got your back!

The GPN was at The Royal Park Hotel. We were about 30 people to discover this place and we really enjoyed it. Laurent Boutonne, the General Manager, introduced his venue and people were able to visit the hotel. It was free champagne and cocktails all evening....

In August, The GPN and Le Cercle Francophone are going to be at The Penthouse. The other events will be at Pause. 

Here is the list:

Les Belges de Londres       (Pause on August 7th)

The GPN Dinner                (Pause on August 8th)

The Network                      (Pause on August 9th)

Le Cercle Francophone     (Penthouse on August 14th)

The GPN                             (Penthouse on August 16th)

The Network Dinner         (Pause on August 23rd)

Please join these Networks to meet and interact with each other:  The Network  & GPN

I very much look forward to seeing you at these events!

Yours ever,
