- Fantastic. I appreciate that. And we, as a company, are among the main partners of the European City of Culture
On the so-called Square of Neighbours, on which we were yesterday and today we appreciated Mr Vladimír, we made another award, but on another line. Mr. Rastislav nominated Mr. Ales. We knew he was at a job that’s just a street away from his house, the square of neighbors. However, when we arrived at the company, we were informed that Mr. Aleš had an online international meeting that would take about 1.5 hours. That is why we returned to the Square of Neighbours, where we were able to appreciate Mr Vladimir. Then we complained in between that we had to wait for Mr. Ales.
However, Mr Peter had an idea. He called Mr. Ales and he answered his phone during the meeting. Mr. Peter played that he really needed his immediate help and Mr. Ales left the meeting because neighbors are more important to him than business. Thanks to this harmless little lie, we were able to appreciate it right outside his house.
We found out that it was he who called the imaginary square between the family houses, and that Mr Ales’ company is one of the main partners of the European City of Culture.
We enjoyed unusual photographs, where we have three awards. Among the conversations around the square was a bicycle on which a lady postman sat. We appreciated that one a month ago. This neighborhood seemed full of people doing good. And the Square of Neighbors, where Mr Rastislav, Peter, Vladimir and Aleš were awarded in two lines, was one of the most positive places we have appreciated so far.
