FREE Ideal Home Show Ticket
Who wants this? It’s a free ticket (normally £18) to the Ideal Home Show opening weekend (ticket valid for either 11th, 12th, or 13th March) in London. On the reverse there is a phone number you can call with a code and get a second ticket for just £10.
Answer me one simple question, and the first person who emails me the correct answer and is able to make it to the show will get it. I’ll pop it straight into the first class post. Hurry now, because it’s next weekend 
QUESTION: Which of my clients featured in Cosmopolitan Magazine?
PS: This is an awesome show, I’ve been more than once to the Birmingham show.

Including all manner of beautifully illustrated products and packaging. I love product packaging. So I was in Boots this morning and took some photos of what the retail illustrators have been up to this year: Read the rest of this entry »
Always keep a Dandy Handy
Congratulations to awesomely talented writer and comic artist Andy Fanton who has his comic strip George Vs Dragon published in The Dandy today.
Now, if you are going to congratulate someone, why not go over the top about it? So hey, look! I’m also ‘in’ The Dandy
Live Music – Swift Manouver
I was on a drunken night out (what?! me?!) in May and was just moving between bars when I heard this incredible band playing from across the street.
