Past two weeks

So what have we been up to in June? Why has the blog been so sparse on quality updates? Well… We’ve been at FESPA ’07 in Berlin looking at the latest printing hardware and listening to Scott Fresener plug T-Jet (oh, and drinking Continental’s free beer). We’ve been looking at new offices in preparation for … Read more

Lack of blogging

Sorry for the complete lack of activity here over the past two weeks but lets face it, it is late May, and it is manic here in the office. You see when the summer comes along (when it stops raining), schools start breaking up (so leavers hoodies), people organise events, trips, reunions, short sleeve staff … Read more

Greenwashing

There has been a flurry of eco/ethical/organic posts on this blog of late, but nothing in comparison to miles of column inches in the press at present. I hope we aren’t overdoing it but the green issues that face the apparel and promotions industry are the most exciting thing to happen to it since someone … Read more

Great Wee Roads

This morning I had to drive out of London to see one of our printers and thankfully it was a fine Spring day, sun shinning, a balmy 20 degrees. All of a sudden, after turning off just past Stonehenge, and the A360, I came across the B3098, a fantastic stretch of picturesque villages, sharp turns … Read more

Italian T-shirts

I have just got back from a few days in Italy with my brother and family, and these cool kids little tees I stumbled across in the hilltop village of Montalcino were worth a snap. Not available online, you actually need to go there to have a chance of getting one. The great food, views … Read more

I have been meaning to write this post for sometime, but it was not until Gerard Butler’s face, fixed in battle cry as Leonidas, whizzed by me on the side of a 337 red London bus last night, did I remember that I had yet to do so: A few weeks ago Jeremy and I … Read more

Alex is in Washington, D.C.

…on business might I add! I have had some time to get some photos with the new Nikon D80 though: Washington photos on Flickr. Back in the UK on Monday 12th Feb, in office on Tuesday 13th.

Under the bonnet (or ‘hood’ if you live across ‘the pond’)

It is that time of year again when the sleeves get rolled up and the website code gets a good work over. Templates get tweaked, css files overhauled, new clothing for 2007 added, pages re-written and updated (e.g. brand information) and new graphics get designed. It is amazing how much hard work it is to … Read more
