I’ve never had a thank you card quite like this one: it’s a Smilebox, sent to me by Sandy and Jo whose wedding last November was a total hoot. You can see it here and listen to it too: the soundtrack is the song they chose to have all their guests sing to them during … Continue Reading

Fame at last!
My former life in adland rarely comes back to haunt me, but I was really tickled to see that I made the front cover of must-have Ad-Mag David Reviews today. Why?
