Alexandra
Bobbe joins us today as our first trainee in Creative Services / 
Project Management, working on the Guardian under the guidance of Mrs Blom.

Dan hon[1]
And this is Dan Hon, who joins us from entertainment company sixtostart, which he founded with his brother. 

While at SixtoStart, Hon produced work including "We Tell Stories"
for Penguin, which earned both Innovation and Best of Show at SXSW
Interactive in 2009.

Dan, whose skills lie in games, play and storytelling, will initially
work out of London before ultimately moving on to W+K HQ in Portland
for a range of clients including Nike and Honda. He
says, "The world of advertising, media and entertainment is changing in
such a fundamental way, and to be part of an agency that's embracing
that change and open to new ideas is fantastic. I'm really looking
forward to infusing W+K with a sense of play and games in London and
Portland."

Hi Graeme

Thank you for your kind email. But bit
hypocritical no? You spend your entire working life sending (i.e.
spamming)  ad messages to people who have not asked for them. Myopia is a
 disturbing blindness.
We have taken you off our list of talent to admire. Have a Great day.

Warmest

Hey XXXX,
I understand you're looking for planners with digital experience, if that's the case then can I take this opportunity to recommend Graeme Douglas.
He wears gaming t-shirts and plays on the computers in Dixons at the weekend.
Apologies for spamming you, but I thought you'd want to know hear about this opportunity.
Lots of love,
Pc.
