dave should do a book of this. best english ad blog now that you’ve moved. i love his interviews with photographers.
I bask in the glow of your indirect compliment.
Well that was weird.
A blog post I hadn’t written just appeared on the blog.
I’ll get to the bottom of this…
Ben, where did that huge para on rapping go? I was only halfway through it…
It was a strange form of spam.
Incredibly I got rid of it.
Sorry…
There was a comment asking about the Harvey Nicks shoplifting ad in all that weird spam. Be interested to hear what you think of it, Ben.
I quite liked it.
Maybe I’ll stick it in a post.

Nice site Mike. A joy in fact.
I miss paper and old school journalism.
It is very good. I tweeted it earlier.

Ben,
You might be interested to know that the ‘user figure’ for my website jumped by an unprecedented 150 over the weekend – a development I can only attribute to the mention on your website and your subsequent tweet. Many thanks, it’s appreciated.
Mike.
Good to know. I really enjoyed it.
