Some of you may have seen I was in Frankfurt for Sheaffer‘s Centenary Event this past weekend, you may or may not have watched the live streaming broadcast that was set up via their Facebook page (clever right?) so you might have caught a quick glimpse or two of me.

The main event was held in a beautiful 5* traditional hotel in the heart of Frankfurt city called Hotel Hessischer Hof. Drinks & Canapé’s were served in a beautifully decorated room with chandeliers and Sheaffer memorabilia dating back to the 1910′s.

The evening flowed with interviews, networking, tasty treats, bubbly and speeches from the general manager Timothy Williams and John Sheaffer, grandson of Walter Sheaffer the founding family!

 I had a fantastic time and met some very interesting and distinguished people, the live streaming of the evening I have to say was a grand idea and the lovely Mindy from “The Gracious Girl” hosted the live broadcast brilliantly.

Happy 100th Sheaffer!
