Following yet another office move (we get our kicks in different ways), we decided that rather than just move more crap around to different parts of the agency we would have a spring clean, make some money and do some good. All in a lunch time!
And so the first ever W+K Bring and Buy Sale was held: a somewhat motley collection of booze from production companies, assorted toys, a reindeer outfit for a dog, a complete man’s suit, a bong and a scary wolf puppet complete with mane.
We tried, but failed, to re-create a village hall country fayre atmosphere in the Sherlock Holmes meeting room, despite the gingham bedspread cum tablecloth and the obligatory cakes (bought not found). However, thanks to the kindness and inherent philanthropy of agency staff we raised £150 for Spitalfields City Farm – a little oasis of rural bliss in Tower Hamlets – which should keep some donkeys in hay for a while. You can see what they do at www.spitalfieldscityfarm.org.
So, some happy donkeys and some redistributed crap, what more could you ask of an otherwise standard Tuesday lunchtime?

Walker, and his tinkling of the ivories in Nokia House, Espoo.
