The need for speed!

on Sunday, 29 August 2010.

We're always striving for greatness here at Retro 36 HQ. That means improving everything, such as our displays, service, product offering, website, etc. So one of the tasks at the moment is to speed up our website http://www.retro36.com/shop. A memorable quote from Top Gun springs to mind, 'I feel the need... the need for speed!'

After some effort, we've managed to increase page load speed by over 10% (on average). Hopefully you'll notice the pages loading faster, which in turn will give you a more rewarding experience.

Bye for now, we've got improvements to make :-)

Big Prezzo winners and their entries

on Wednesday, 18 August 2010.

Quick history before we start waffling: We ran a competition at Christmas (2009) called The Retro 36 Big Prezzo Prize Draw Giveaway. This competiton challenged our local fans to make a YouTube video, write on their Bebo, Facebook or mySpace pages, upload pictures or just write something simple about what it is they liked about us. Every entry had a chance of winning, but the more entertaining they were, the more entries we allocated.

We had numerous entries including videos, a poem, Tweets, Facebook statusi, a newly created Facebook group, and pictures. Understand? We can see you nodding, so read on peeps.
