My mother’s won an award for something (I think an essay) from a travel magazine. See here for more!
Congrats Ma!

Wohoooooo! I managed to get the Amazon media manager plugin to work almost by myself! Admittedly, it took some help from Chris once again, but I was able to fiddle and google until I’ve got it to display, albeit in a slightly ugly fashion. I will fix this eventually (probably with Chris’ help), but I’ll need to learn about CSS first…
Again, thanks to Chris!
Look forward to amusing forwards and interesting links with more than the usual amount of glee, as it looks a bit pathetic at the moment…
I have a new rss feed, for those interested. It’s here: http://www.division6.34sp.com/wp/?feed=rss2.
RSS - good for all your really simple needs. Thanks to Chris for this.
Last night, we celebrated our win of the CIPR’s PR agency of the year award with a great dinner and evening at Soho House. It does continually surprise me how well we get on as an agency, and at how much genuine happiness there was for each others good news - the award, engagements and pregnancies and such like.
Although this is my first workplace, I suspect that David Brent, Ally McBeal and the like had prepared me to be a bit more cynical about the office environment… And its nice not to have cynicism justified, for once.
Was a huge achievement for the agency; as a relative newcomer (5 years old this year) and a specialist agency to win the overall agency award. We really do rock.
…this is genius. I don’t even like beer, but it is a nice idea.
This kind of stuff will go in my Linklog when I get that up and running…
Was a power cut at work today. Was a bit bizarre; traffic lights were out and there was the occasional blare of a siren whizzing past. Everyone’s first instinct was… “Crap, what’s happened now?” There is a sense of overwhelming irritation at every inconvenience the terrorists cause.
Interesting to me as fear was definitely a secondary emotion to irritation. Of course there is fear; but mostly, we’re just annoyed that its interrupting our schedule (of tea, cricket matches, and all other things British, of course).
Nonetheless, it was a relief to find out that the power cut was caused by an overzealous engineer digging through a power cable by mistake…
Damn. Just finished Harry Potter 6, and am now singularly blue.
Can never make up my mind if those books are good or not, but was definitely enjoyable, and upsetting to finish it. The entire 600 pages was only about 4 hours reading time (somewhat disconcerting), but I think I am - much as I dislike re-reading novels - going to have to plough through the whole set before I read book 7.
Anyone who’s been frantically refreshing division6 this afternoon will notice that the site has gone through multiple different flavours. Am trying out new themes on WordPress, trying to get the del.icio.us plugin to work, and various other technical things.
Going to stick with this on for a bit… Let me know if you have any thoughts / comments in the new improved comments box!
Chris has used part of his visit to London to help me migrate to WordPress. Woooo!
