(This gorgeous picture is from Orhan and used with great thanks.)
There's a Pentagram talk down at the Design Museum tomorrow night.
Harry Pearce, John Rushworth and (is this a bit of a coup?) Paula Scher will all be in attendance.
I know that tickets were in short supply and I know that many of you reading this live outside London. So I will lovingly file a full, in depth NDG report sometime over the weekend. No need to thank me.
Whilst we're talking about talks I want to mention a few others that may be of interest you. Shall I list them?
1. Some cracking ones coming up at the D&AD this spring. Pentagram (again but with more partners), Vince Frost, Wim Crouwel and Mr W + Mr K. Book your tickets now. I mean that, I always leave these things too late and then get cross with my bad self when I find they're sold out.
2. The D&AD are also hosting something called The Branding and Environmental Issues Forum which sounds like a bloody Haymarket conference but will be really interesting. Panel members include David Hiatt from Howies and Russell Davies. No, not that one.
3. And thanks to Richard I must mention the ever brilliant Alan Kitching who's waxing his tache down at St Bride's Library. Click here to see the best tache vs type picture you'll ever see. For those of you who don't know Kitching is up there with Fletcher.


Aw. thanks Ben. Tickets for all events are going like hot cakes.......

Hello all,
I've got two tickets for the pentagram talk going if someone wants them? I bought a couple and can't go now... Can't be bothered with cash but if someone wants to send me something interesting in return then they're up for grabs. Gimme a call today on 07812 569506 and I'll give you my name so you can collect them from the box office. First come first served!

Hi, just a quick note to say I spoke to Dannyboy about an hour ago and was able to snag the tickets!
Many thanks for allowing me to, as a university student money is always the issue, and I shall send you a few posters and things I have.
Oh, and good luck with the house move!

Thanks for the review Ben!
Sounds better than humping boxes up and down stairs...
