A marvellous effort by the whole team this week has seen us arrive in good shape at the ’1 week to go’ point. Posters, banners, vinyls, conkervans, nutty norman, jack conkers, food & drink, stalls, raffle prizes, balloons, bunting, dj’s and of course conkers are all coming together for what should prove a fabulous fun 3 hours next Friday 9 October between 12-3pm. There are still opportunities to get involved with Sponsorship, raffle prizes, volunteering, and entering a team (of 3) before the event next Friday. Please call Mick, Perry or Lauren in the studio next week. But pop along next Friday lunchtime.. it’ll be great fun and it’s in aid of Everyman Male Cancer Campaign and help us Conker Male Cancer!

Mehmet is struggling today after using up all his energy at Skyride yesterday. He was one of the marshalls for 65,000 flourescent bibbed cyclists pedalling around the capital. We’re just trying to locate an image of him on the ride, to authenticate his achievement, but at least he can spend the whole day drinking hot chocolates! http://new.britishcycling.org.uk/skyride
Update to yesterday’s post… Mehmet has trawled the million pictures from Sunday and found himself nearing Embankment.
This weekend was Open House London, and is the capital’s largest architectural showcase now in it’s 17th year. On Peter’s 2007 review (our accountant) Perry popped along to the Karl Marx Memorial Library in Clerkenwell. A library to Marxist & socialist writings and posters we were fascinated to be informed that Lenin actually worked from the office between 1902-03. Steve went to say hello to Boris at City Hall. Sadly no Boris pictures.
