Episode 28 with Giles Stagg from Sip 'n' Swig - Lets have a party
04/26/23 • 29 min
Here’s Episode 28 of my podcast series taken from my LinkedIn Live Show Number 90.
Do you like Ice in your Gin? What is your favourite cocktail?
I had a great chat with Giles Stagg from Sip ‘n’ Swig the people who provide corporate bars, wedding bars, event bars, cocktail classes, gin/rum tasting events, dinner party service and contract cellar and line cleaning services.
But he doesn’t just do this. He has also got a gin company.
Or should I say
Award-winning gin company.
Giles is a 51-year-old man who is married to Jodie and has two children named Dalton and Jaxon, as well as a dog named Bramble. They are a busy and often chaotic household as they work from home, as evidenced by the course he once took while holding a baby and with the dog jumping on the sofa with him. He enjoys playing hockey and squash, listening to music, and indulging in a nice glass of red, port, gin, rum, IPA, or cocktail, in moderation with a preference for quality over quantity.
Giles met Jodie six years ago while running a bar in Stratford upon Avon. They have been running Sip 'n' Swig for six years, and for the last two years, they have been doing it full-time.
They provide event bars of any kind but specialize in cocktails, having trained with the Savoy group at Simpson's in the Strand. Weddings, cocktail masterclasses, and party cocktail bars used to be their biggest draws, but they now do a lot of corporate event work as well.
In 2021, they launched their own gin brand called Stag, with two London drys, one of which (Stag Smooth) won a silver award at the International Wine & Spirit Competition in 2022, while the latest one (Stag Spiced) won a gold in 2023. They have won various awards over the past few years with their bar company. Since launching the gin brand, they have diversified into corporate gifting with gift boxes of their miniature bottles branded with clients' logos.

Episode 27 - Dermot Hamblin - The Curly Wurly Chart Master
Here’s Episode 27 of my podcast series taken from show number 72 of my 15 Minutes for Accountants & Bookkeepers Live Stream which aired on LinkedIn on 19 April 2023.
As you know, every Wednesday at 12:30 pm I talk to the wonderful people who help and inspire Accountants & Bookkeepers.
If you are in the accounting space and you don't know my guest this week then where have you been?
Do you like a Curly Wurly? How are you doing on LinkedIn?
Who are you following in the Accounting and Bookkeeping space?
I had to have Dermot come back again to talk about his Curly Wurly Chart, didn't I?
Dermot has 25 Years in the accounting tech space, which means a wealth of stories on success and how not to do it. All wrapped up in a straightforward and humorous way to explain.
Dermot has developed a spreadsheet that highlights the movers and shakers in the Accounting and Bookkeeping space and has a chart of the top 100 or so.
So many new faces are popping up on his great list and I’m looking forward to meeting most of them at Accountex next month. I’ll be on Stand 430 with the Payroll Sorted gang if you wanna come and find me.
What Dermot is doing with his list is helping us to improve what we do on LinkedIn, helping to create a great community and also encouraging people to do more for the accountants and Bookkeepers and all the wonderful people who help and support them with software and services.
You can Call Dermot on 07748 776252
