Yes, it’s of me speaking/ranting at the MediaWorks conference last week … and I have to say it confirms I ain’t no Brad Pitt – infact even Arm Pitt is pushing it!!!
What with this … my Kung-Fu impression and the one-eyed portrait … I can imagine you have all started to question whether you should ever come to this blog again soooooo, to prove I am still worthy of your, ahem, attention … can I point out that the big slide behind me in the photo say’s …
“WARNING: There Will Be Swearing”
And there was … lots of it … infront of alot of people ….
Sure it’s not big and sure it’s not clever – but that’s what you get when you give a boy from Nottingham a stage, a microphone and an audience locked in a room, ha!
Does that make it all better now?
Have I convinced you to continue to hang around? Please? Pretty Please???
[Not that I’m desperate or anything. Oh no, I can handle being a Billy-No-Mates! OK … I can’t … stay, please, please stay]
Ahem!
Anyway, an absolutely massive thanks to Jasper at Branded for sending me this – and a whole other bunch – of unflattering pics. I really, really hope you don’t fall down the stairs and break your leg … and if you do, the fact I was probably behind you is purely coincidental.
Hmmmmppphhf!
[Oh, and talking of embarrassing pics, a huuuuuuuuuge thanks to NP for his ‘Separated At Birth’ post … it was really nice and I’ll try and return the favour. [Cue: Evil Laugh!]

Half a brain?
One and a half brains more like … unless you were being ironic like Hari and implying most agencies only have people 1/12th brains.
Please be quick – we don’t want another Andy explosion! Ha.
Comment by Rob March 15, 2007 @ 1:04 pmhalf a brain – figure of speech… otherwise known as clever.
Comment by lauren March 15, 2007 @ 1:34 pmPhew … close call!
Comment by Rob March 15, 2007 @ 1:42 pmI just thought I’d add the words “fucking shit” into this thread. No reason other than I think it’s rather apt. I would have gone with the C*Bomb but yanno… ladies (with wild hair and piercings!) present.
Comment by Age March 15, 2007 @ 2:47 pmhe he.. i was going to throw the c* word in earlier age, but thought the boys mightn’t like it..

Have you done enough to make me come back? I’m suprised you give a shit
Do I like the fact you swear a lot? Wash you mouth out with soap you dirty mouthed bastard.
Morning!
Comment by Marcus Brown March 15, 2007 @ 4:34 pmDon’t you start Mr Mortimer … ha.
The ONLY reason the ‘c-word’ has not been mentioned is because my Mum now reads this blog and as cool as she has suddenly become with the ‘F’ word [which is amazing because as a kid saying ‘Bloody’ was a criminal offence] I think the ‘C-word’ is one word too far.
However …
I am absolutely passionate about it’s use [sorry Mum] and infact it used to be my goal to get every single person in my company [wherever I worked] to use it. I never failed … though Jill is proving a hard nut to crack!
Comment by Rob March 15, 2007 @ 4:53 pmWHY IS EVERYONE BEING CYNICESQUE!!!
Comment by Rob March 15, 2007 @ 4:56 pmOooh I’m scared…..
I’m already got Scamp on my back, you don’t worry me one bit.
Comment by NP March 15, 2007 @ 5:13 pmNP, I’ve given Scamp a formal written warning and instructions to back off.
Comment by Marcus Brown March 15, 2007 @ 5:14 pmI believe you were the one who started it Rob!
Comment by Rob Mortimer March 15, 2007 @ 5:21 pmIs Scamp 20 stones though NP???
Be scared of Andy mate – far more ferocious [despite sending Hari love notes saying sorry!]
Comment by Rob March 15, 2007 @ 5:32 pmOK, I should point out that Andy is now about 17 stones …
That’s what marrying a Keep-Fit Queen does for you.
Comment by Rob March 15, 2007 @ 5:33 pmI darent ask how he lost that 3 stone…
Comment by Rob Mortimer March 15, 2007 @ 5:50 pm… and he didn’t even go to India and drink the water!
Comment by Rob March 15, 2007 @ 6:40 pmHaha, maybe theres a plan…
Comment by Rob Mortimer March 15, 2007 @ 6:42 pmphew! i forgot your mum reads this blog, rob.. now i’m REALLY glad that i didn’t drop the word! – hi mrs campbell!!
Comment by lauren March 15, 2007 @ 7:58 pmNice that everyone on this blog respects their elders. It’s important …
Sure the new is fresh and exciting, but one thing I hate about adland is that they regard anyone over 40 as over-the-hill and irrelevent.
This is not because I am fast approaching 40 [still 3.5 years to go. Thank God] but because there are lessons and values that can only be experienced and understood by someone from an older age.
Not only that … being old[er] doesn’t mean being irrelevant, it’s about the mindset – and I am lucky my 74 year old Mum has the mind, attitude and desire for learning of a 40 year old.
