30/11/09_AnnaM_Freaky colour coincidence #2

Ok, last week four of us turned up to work wearing grey.  A bit odd, but we thought nothing of it.

Then today, Mike, Katie, Stuart and I all appeared wearing purple.  It’s starting to freak us out so we’ve decided to document it, just in case this happens again.

So folks, today is St Andrew’s Day and we’re pledging our support to Scotland through the medium of colour, the colour purple.

Enjoy.The colour purple

11/08/09_AnnaM_Know thyself?

For a little bit of lunchtime inspiration and a ‘oooh, let me see yours’ banter, we all had a go at a few of the online psychology tests listed in this New York Times article.  The You Just Get Me site offers you a summary of your personality, brought to life in the form of  a series of bubbles.  Any guessing whose this one is?

Twitter

The wonder of Twitter is revealed in this interesting piece from the BBC technology blog.  It seems Twitter users are beating regular journos to getting news online, in the public domain as quickly as possible.  There are some pitfalls however so as with the wonderful world of Wikipedia don’t believe everything you read on Twitter.

We’re going to make the effort to update our twitter profile with any news or interesting goings on so watch this space!

22/08/08_AnnaM_Big match result

After much pre-match hype  (mainly from the client side) Tennent’s seasoned pro’s were put to the sword by Stand’s young guns, winning by five spectacular goals. 

A fine performance by Emyln was tempered by a scything tackle on his own man - Craig Wilson, who was on his way off to the oxygen tent before being up-ended from behind no less. 

The rematch is next week, this time we’ll take pics or might even have some graphics for you. 

21/08/08_AnnaM_The big match

Well, the boys in the office have been in training for tonight’s ‘Big Match’ against the Tennent’s Lager Lovelies Lads.  Craig Stewart’s already sporting a rather nasty injury but is doing the right thing and not pulling out of tonight’s game.  He’s a real trooper that boy.  Craig Stewart’s war wound

A news update on the result will follow tomorrow.  Expect bruised egos,  frayed tempers and broken relationships.
