Im lost for words to! I was informed by Professional Beauty/Emap yesterday and have been in a state of trance ever since.
Please refer to the press release on the website for more information. I know that this decision has not been taken lightly and they do apologise to anyone that this has caused inconveience to.
I have been asked to be the point of contact for the geeks so if any of you have questions or need to talk, please call me at the ANT on 0208 302 2020. I get a feeling my PM box will be jammed so please also email me at
[email protected]. I have clients from 10-2 today but will be in the ANT office til about 8pm tonight.
All paid competitiors for the nail competition will be contacted personally by me or Sue Davies (ANT secretary). You can have your entry transfered to Manchester or Excel or we can arrange a refund. If you payment has only just been sent, your cheque or C/C will not be cleared and you will recieve a call or letter from us. I am so sorry about the comp. I have worked very hard, and i know Denise has to, writing all the new rules but these will all still be the same for Manchester. (Except photo/combined nail art theme will be Geisha). I feel for those who have already put so much effort into their preperation.
I will also be contacting all the the speakers in the ANT Forum.
If you are reading this and i have not contacted you yet, please give me a little time as i have a rather long list.
I am just as gutted as you guys..............................
