busy week etc.

zzzmkbhvg06.jpg

I’m having a very busy week. Too much stuff going on for me to pro­cess all of it. So ins­tead, a list:

1. IT@Cork was great. Always a treat to see Tom Raf­tery, and I espe­cially enjo­yed mee­ting Jeff Nolan for the fist time.
2. Last night’s Lon­don Girl Geek Din­ner was fun, as usual. Steve Clay­ton has a good synop­sis here.
3. Tomo­rrow is the Scoble/MacLeod Lon­don pub crawl. Anyone fan­cies coming along, just turn up. Details here.
4. I’m hea­ding back up home to Cum­bria on Satur­day. Can­not wait.
5. English Cut is get­ting busier. Expect to see a lot of new pro­ducts in 2007. Shirts, cash­mere, ties, shoes, all that good stuff etc.
6. I con­ti­nue to be swam­ped with mani­festo sub­mis­sions. Sorry I can’t post them all, but I love recei­ving them, and I do read each and every one. Thanks for that, and keep ‘em coming. Rock on.
To be honest, I find it all very exci­ting. I’m hoping it evol­ves into something fairly per­ma­nent and ongoing for gaping­void, but only time will tell etc.
What do you think?

    Hugh,
    I enjo­yed the part of your talk at it@cork where you ans­we­red audience ques­tions and got some inte­rac­tion going. In the stan­dard part of your pre­sen­ta­tion, I couldn’t quite relate what I was hea­ring with the sharp, insight­ful and astute wri­ting in your blog. For me, you get your ideas across much bet­ter online. There’s a great mar­ke­ting story and some les­sons behind English Cut and Stormhoek that just didn’t come across.
    OK, I admit it, I was expec­ting a Scots accent.
    Any­way, going on the piss tomo­rrow after­noon sounds like a great way to get through to Satur­day and thanks for making it to Ireland.

  3. The world needs more manifestos.

    the beard is defi­ni­tely dif­fe­rent. but I’m loving the manifestos

  5. Jeff is one of the smar­test peo­ple I know among a lot of smart peo­ple over at the Irregulars
