From a long list of excellent winners, several stood out for me:
The Queen's Theatre won the best hospitality award, on the basis of a public vote. I visited them over the Summer to see the first night of Return to the Forbidden Planet, and in my opinion the award is well deserved.
The award for best marketing was won by Romford's very own Brewery Centre, which also happens to be where I live! In recent years new restaurants and a Costa Coffee have been added to the already stunning retail opportunities available here.
And there were two special awards for long term support of the awards over several years. They went to Christine Smith of Molly's Florists and Martin Bumpus from our local Lloyds TSB. Special awards were presented by Mayor Cllr Lynden Thorpe.
It was a late night with disco and live entertainers ensuring that we danced into the early hours of Saturday...

You live in a brewery? Have you ever managed to organise any proverbial events in it? Despite being on the GLA? Marvellous. Where are the pics of you doing your John Travolta act though: come on, Mr Evans: don't be shy ...
Sorry to disappoint you Mrs A, but I don't have any pictures of my dancing - and I hope nobody else does...
