BOB - Best Of Bucks 2008

BOB had arrived at Wunderman last night and there was panic in the air "did you invite anyone?", "I hope people turn up". There was no need for panic as the event turned out to be a great fine mess. Both rooms packed with agency people scanning through all the books, and all we could do is sit and view the attention. There were two prizes to give out to the best books and the first was for a 2-week placement at Wunderman.


Well done to Dawn and Chi who won the 2-week placement at Wunderman, hope it goes well and that there is a job offer at the end. The next prize on offer, was a 2-week placement at Saatchi and Saatchi. We started betting on the team that we thought would win and we were right. This team have stuck to their guns since leaving uni and held out for placements with the big ATL agencies. Some may say it’s a risky move, as you could be waiting for a long time, but then again you need to have goals and ambition to get anywhere in life. We are talking about Paul and Jermaine. Well-done lads and best of luck to you (remember your digital friends).


A few people need thanking. Julie Wright, as always you have our best interests at heart and we are all grateful that you decided to do BOB for us. Matthew Searle, well done with the invitations, they looked the bizz. Seb the r….., love the badges. We are going to wait until Seb becomes famous and then sell them on Ebay (millionaire guaranteed). Really nice to see Pavel Fernandez who is an ex Dare Digital member, speak soon. Finally to the people who put the nuts, crisps out, and not to mention the alcohol in the buckets of ice. You are special too.

Looks like it was a lot of fun, shame I couldn't make it but I had to see off a friend who was leaving work.

drop by sometime if you're in the neighbourhood.

Yeah there were lots of laughs on the night. We are just changing bits to our book and then we'll pop round. We're pretty stacked at Dare at the moment but should be done in a couple of weeks.
