  • 5 Kenny Grant 22nd Jan 2024

    I was very very happy with the service that James McDonald provided. Bobby Gunn looked after us every step of the way and went out of his way to make sure that everything was just as we wished. Thanks also to Trisha who was always there in support. Finally, to both of the drivers (Charlie drove the limo) our thanks for going above and beyond in atrocious weather to bring Deborah home before making the journey in blizzard conditions to the crematorium. The opportunities for things to go wrong on the day were numerous and the team pulled it off with ne'er a hitch. Grateful thanks from ClanGrant. Rgds Kenny
