So Jenni has been the lucky recipient of my CDs, and a review is forthcoming. This means that we're getting ever closer to that happy day when I get to spend a wonderful couple of hours creating a detailed and fantastically meaningful spreadsheet to try and discover if there's some kind of pattern in our song choices*.

Hmmm.

Something to look forward to, eh?

* technically I suppose I don't have to do this, but with my deeply obsessive personality, as soon as it was suggested, obviously I was going to be doing it....

In other news, we also have a winner in the inaugural "Where's Swiss?" competition....

Where's Swiss? Here he is.....



Yes, I am that blurry shape shrouded by a baseball cap, a hoodie (hood up) and a rain coat (hood up). Amazing, eh?

It seems remarkable that only one person guessed correctly instantly picked me out from the crowd, but there you go. Well done Alex! That "Team IS" t-shirt (unworn, size = large) is yours if you want it. Well, you could use it as a duster or something....?

I also reckon that Bedshaped should be rewarded for his magnificent guess. What would you say to a "Team IS" mug? Yes?

And I'm awarding Yoko a prize too: a "Team IS" travel alarm clock (seriously). Just because.

Email me to claim your prizes, people....

  2. I await the spreadsheet with a worrying level of anticipation. Lists, order, stability, sigh.

  3. Re: Shuffleathon update.

    I am actually curious as to whether there were any song duplications on the lists. I'm not quite anal enough to dig through all the lists myself, though if you don't do it, I will.

  5. How about a corporate gift shuffleathon? I have lovely mugs, post-it pads, pens, pencils and keyrings which I'll gladly swap for alarm clocks and other good stuff...

  6. Hahah, I got the pity prize for picking out the man SITTING NEXT TO YOU, hahaha, how sad am I?

    Alarums! :D

  7. yoko - if you don't want it, you've just got to say.....

    It's not a pity prize. I'm awarding it to you because it was your suggestion that I run a competition for that t-shirt!

    Pah!

  11. I think I'll let my prize be the rush of correctly identifying (read guessing) which huddled figure was you. Besides which, if I had a duster I might actually have to dust :-D
