Interestingly, Richard the visualiser was using a Tablet PC, allowing him to draw directly onto the screen of his computer. Really cool,

UntaxingUp to London for another day on neuropathic pain. Refreshingly, the new creative director reframes things interestingly, and stretches the creative work. Sean and I have been asked to work Thursday too, and then have a long weekend off before a few days next week.After work I met Mark Hill and Robbie in the Blue Anchor for a few swifties. The place redesigned from when I used to go there.

But parents will do well to consider the facts. Obesity is not only a problem of how a child looks. It also means many dangerous and even fatal health conditions.

However still managed to have something of a laugh with Sean, while we worked on the interminable neuropathic pain. After work I bumped into Craig on the street on the way back to the station. He had Eva with him, and they

WindbaggeryThe best part of this week is that I have made a new friend in the form of Sean the art director. He is a very funny guy and we have been setting each other off during the week.

Sean and I,
