Tesco’s 2011 Christmas advert has heightened our festive senses here at dna. It features a short but sweet reference within the advert copy, “We’re keeping Torquay in Turkey”, along with a beautiful shot of our sea front. Although quite a few places are mentioned, we can’t help but feel proud of our merry little town getting national coverage!

Thanks to everyone who came to the DNA Summer BBQ a while ago. Thankfully the good weather we booked arrived on schedule, so we could enjoy the festivities against the gorgeous backdrop of the Torbay coastline. Thanks also to the Boat House for putting on such a great spread. For anyone who didn’t get their special DNA BBQ apron, don’t be afraid to ask for one – we still have some in reserve! Next stop – fishing competition. Watch this space!
