London nervously awaits the results of the Mayoral elections 2008, wondering which clown won. Indigo Clothing screen printed the t-shirts for the ‘London Elects‘ staff, the organisation running the election. Last night the polls were very close, with second choice votes looking important for both Boris and Ken.

I used the British Library for the first time last Thursday. An incredible building not far from the Indigo Clothing offices and near Kings Cross train station. Did you know they receive a copy of every publication produced in the UK and Ireland and the collection includes 150 million items, in most known languages?
