One commenter wrote: “My grandmother used to call every year from the US since 1999, for my birthday and my sister’s birthday. She had a great relationship with you guys, and it made our day to see your little van show up with balloons. So many great memories.”
Another shared: “Gutted that you’re closing, but wish you all the best moving forward. It was such a shock when I popped in this weekend to order some balloons. Your balloon art is exceptional and you’ve all got such an eye for design and colours!
“You’ve all been amazing these past few years and become a real birthday tradition in our house. Definitely part of our forever memories! Thank you all.”
