Politicks

So they’re all trying to gain our trust again it seems these politicians and they’re sorry indeed about the expenses stuff and all that bad stuff they were caught doing. We should forgive them and let them fix up the country they say. We owe it to ourselves.

Now it’s unfair to tag them all with the same brush but the adject tedium of the Facebook posts and Twitter stream with the electioneering is overwhelming to the point where they are now best referred to as anti-social networks. But like the proverbial wobbly tooth I haven’t got the willpower to unfriend them all, on some horribly corrupt level I must be enjoying it.

Saying that it’s not all bad. In the interests of disclosure yes we built her website and yes my fiance works for her but it’s still refreshing to see Anna Lo pledging her help to SME ands, wait for it, Start Ups on her election literature. Check it out for yourself…

Anna pops by to say hello

So it’s with bleary eyes and a peculiarly dry mouth that we all say thank you to everyone who came to the office launch last night and for the very kind cards, champagne and words of support. We know we’re very fortunate to have the clients and colleagues that we do and we hope you all enjoyed our wee party as much as we did.

Who gave that man a drill? He's a goon!
Who gave that man a drill? He’s obviously a hired goon!

One person who seemed very taken with the whole thing was South Belfast MLA Anna Lo who very kindly came to lend her support to the various projects happening in the Marquis Building and to the creative industries in general. Anna was hugely impressed by the turnout and also remarked on the number of young people that were there, getting involved in the creative industries and creating the next generation of Northern Ireland companies.

And so to sleep (well to a Digital Circle meeting where they may let me sleep. They’re nice folk and I hope they’ll take pity on me…)
