Where have I been?

I've been working the Lincoln Christmas Market! Which is why I haven't updated my blog in a while.

I've been working 12 and even 13 hour days- stood on my feet ushering people across the road safely (around 100,000 people on Saturday!)

The ORANGE team was the best! We had the toughest job ;) But with the help of the police, our work was a success. I met some great people- some weird folks too! The police were hilarious- by the end of the 4 days we were joking around and making fun out of one another. Charlie, Ian, Inigo and Keith, you guys were ACE! 

I was listening to the radio we had connected to our ear piece- we had the radios connected to every steward, police officer, ambulance staff and the fire brigade service which gave us something to listen to. 'Orange 1 to orange alpha over.'

On top of that, I got a few freebies! My friend managed to smooth talk the old man to get some flashy toys- WIN!

And not only that but Charlie let me borrow her police hat. I loved her impression of the 'No no no cat'! 

All in all- a very fun but tiresome four days. Now I need to rest my foot as my tendon on my heel has seized- wonderful!

Thanks for reading. Over and out.

Manifesto: If things were different

For the first university project of this term, we were asked to write a manifesto. I wrote two, one serious and one less serious- see one here. Here is my other written, designed and produced manifesto. It was only a week project but I did a publication, four poster designs and set up a twitter account. 

Jonathan Barnbrook was meant to come in and critique our work but he had a call from a client to get work done for a client so he couldn't make it. He kindly tweeted back however, and apologised :)


The manifesto is about things that I would change if I could / if things were different. Some of these things are things that irritate me as well. The twitter account is set up for anyone who would like to join this little campaign to share what irritates them and what they would change if they could. So if you have a twitter account, tweet @irritate_ with #ifthingsweredifferent and tell me. My favourite tweets will be produced into posters for an entry into my 3rd year end of year degree show. So get tweeting!!

The publication is a concertina and stretches out.

Little information strips to get people tweeting to @irritate_
