Tate's 20th

TATE liverpool celebrated their 20th birthday this weekend with an unconventional party. Northern soul tunes 'rocked' the foyer of the TATE with a pic a mix of attendees (including myself). Either way it was a gallant effort from the newly furbished gallery. Black and Ginger are most definitely MATES of TATE. Happy Birthday.

Liverpool get's new posh store........

Power Dressing

Alex and I are on the train to London to go over a website with a new client. The train journey from liverpool to london is usually a pretty boring run. However, we have found ourselves sitting in a real life episode of 'the office'. Two guys sitting behind us are doing a sterling job of trying to out do each other with some serious corporate lingo. Guy on left "if you put a propper manager in place they will manage not micro manage without close control systems and not expoloiting geographical location or distribution levels", Guy on right "totally agree" Guy on Left "Agree on what?" Guy on right "err what you just said" Guy on left "err what did i just say?" Guy on right "something about managing" Guy on right " we need to evaluate this, put an online test in place that will remove us from the jigsaw" Guy on right "yeah good idea, its all about getting the peices in the right place, like a sandwich guy on left "err, yeah your right.... Do you think i look cooler with a big knot in my tie or no tie?" guy on right "big knot, absolutly, says power dressing, your in control," guy on right "yes, thats right, i am in control".

New studio!

We just moved to our amazing lovely new studio space. A two story gaff with a loft studio, terrace and a toilet with a two person shower ;) Alex just sent me this great picture from our terrace, makes me want to go back to work!

Impressive

Reading the latest copy of 'COLORS' magazine which is dedicated to people with varying degrees of blindness. I was really taken aback by a story of a blind football team. The Brazilian national blind football team in fact. I just had to read on. This short story gives a great insight to how a disability can be turned into such a unique 'ability'. These guys are great. Check out the video we found on youtube. How do you think you'd get on?

Donuts.......

" Bedsheets for guys who don't want to come too early !"
