Roses are Gold
October 22nd, 2007
Thursday night was the Roses Design Awards. It’s always difficult to blog about these things, especially if you do well. What can you say? Well, since I asked, I thought I’d answer. According to Blogging About Awards (2007, Revised Edition) there are five correct ways to approach the subject:
1) Show off (but no one likes a show off)
2) Remain modest (does anyone really buy that any more?)
3) Thank everyone (don’t really want to do a Gwyenth)
4) LOST poster (did this last week)
5) Use squirrels
Fortunately of the four golds, silver and two bronze awards we won, we only managed to lose one of them. It may possibly be buried somewhere in South Manchester. Dave says there’s a job and a bag of nuts going for anyone who returns it safely, along with the Fresh ones.

Hold on - I thought we won 8 not 7? Did we loose 2?

No the squirells just made a mistake when they wrote that post. You try holding your nuts and typing at the same time. It was four golds, 3 bronze and one silver. Shit, I’ve dropped my nuts…
