A Turn Up For The Books
January 30th, 2008

Here’s an utterly pointless post about the state of turn ups in our creative department. Draw from it whatever conclusions you want.

Ravi Sohanpal: Designer: 6.1cms

Mr Darren Hughes: Creative Head: 15.3 cms (ok, 7.2cms)

Adam Rix: Designer: 0cms

Lauranda Reid: Placement: 10.5cms (nice socks, btw)

Simon Griffin: Copywriter: 6.6cms

Stu Preece: Web Designer: 5.8cms

Matt Booth: Flash monkey: 3.7cms

So Lauranda has officially the longest turn ups in the department, with an impressive 10.5cms, but hers were hidden inside her boots. Darren takes overall winner with 7.2cms, although I think Dave P would have given him a run for his money had he been in today. I hope you can now sleep soundly tonight.

    And the prize for the most utterly ridiculous footwear goes to… (drum roll please) Simon Griffin.

  2. Pieman Says:

    These are extremely sensible shoes considering the weather we’ve been having recently.

  3. Chris Says:

    I would have given it to Ravvi with them Pimp Soles

  4. John Says:

    I agree. 100% Somme-proof. Very shrewd.

    I’m more concerned about Lauranda’s socks… are those knickers on her socks? (blinks) Knickers? On socks? A pair of socks with knickers on them? Wha-?

    That is the most postmodern thing I have EVER seen. Ace! :-)

    Good job you measured Ravi’s left leg - the turn-up on the right leg is shamefully narrow.

    Sounds like a challenge to duel. Let’s choose weapons.

    Aaah, I see you’ve opted for the hoxton fin.
    I’ll go for a rolled up copy of Arena.
