We celebrated our 10th birthday party last night in style at No 4 Hamilton Place on its stunning roof terrace overlooking Hyde Park in Mayfair, London.

The sun was shining with sausages sizzling on the bbq, the wine flowing and some great tunes been played by John Jones from Hed Kandi. We even had our own ORM Angels going around giving fantastic massages to everyone to get them into the chill out vibe of the evening.

It was great to mark the occasion and to take the opportunity to thank all our clients and suppliers for their support over the years.

Again thank you to everyone who came along and made it a great night. For your viewing pleasure here are the party pics
