Right well my month of getting myself together has finished. lol Time to get back to the real worl. All the anicca stuff is out the way, with connect festival symbolising my short break. time to start looking for a new job, a nice stable possition somewhere

So connect festival. What a load of rubbish. out of all the festivals ive been too, uk or otherize, its is indeed the worst organised excuse for a outdoor event I have ever attended. the line up was a bit bad to begin with but the bands we wanted to see where amaizing. The festval itself was rubbish but the goodtimes had by the group will stay with us for ever. a good scrap book moment.



I met up with drew as well, hes starting his new design venture (flx or fixx or ficks or phix or phixx undecided as of this time) up in edinburgh at the end of this week, I wish him all the best and look forward to working with him soon. Was great to see the big fella, just hope its not as long before we go for a few drams.

Ill keep you up to date with progress, I found this company tonight called tictoc,



€they sound really really interesting, applied for a jr position with them, would be a massive opertunity. plus they like rjd2 and aphex twin, which ausome lol.

Its been a while since Ive had a wee bit of time to myself to sit down and get all my own stuff sorted. For those who don't know i finished up working with Creative Oceanic. Not through any fallout or dissruption, just things didnt work out, money being a decisive matter. But I wish them all the best in the future who knows our paths may cross once again.

As for me. Ive applied for mmm I dunno 10 jobs or so. I have a few interesting things in the pipeline comming up this week, one company in particulair that seems to be of great opertunity. loose lips sink ships. so ill keep stoochm about it just now.

Freelance stuff. Ive been working on new Anicca Artwork for there single cd. The one ive been working on for a wee while now, the band are now ready to go to production so were gettign everything and finalised this week. Anicca are now also working on there first album, everything is going well for the guys and ive also been commissioned to do there new album art work, probibly a few more pages/ mini booklet this time. pretty exighting. Plus the possibibly for web and my space stuff. Ive been working on a new flash flip book site for a few days now. so this may be the potential infrastructure for their new site, who knows i shall keep you posted.

Ive been working away with John Mc Conville again, things are still in the development stage but we will be implementing database technology. Thats all im alowed to say at the moment on the subject. John and I have also went through all the necessary paperwork and forms etc so j-digital-ink is now a fully legal and bona fide company.

So what else have i been up to...

Not much, I got a Wii, wow! mucho mucho fun. Good excercise as well. im on a bit of a health kick (I hate that term) again. Out cycling and other over-the-top shit like that. I tried vegitarianism for a week, but I felt ill. So thats out the window.Id go to the gym but im skintish, plus I have allthe gym gear all I need in the house.

My Driving is comming on well, not long now. although my instructor is going on holiday for 6 weeks! gutted, totaly gutted. its still gonna be pure ages till im legal, still going out and about from time to time with my family and friends. so Im still getting experience.Been looking at new cars, well 2nd hand ones so far ive went through the mini phaze, and now im on to the smart car phaze. I really like the roaster coupe, nice wee sporty but sensible and cheap to run and insure car.

oh yeah, Im also now a member of the Drum magazine directory, which means im now listed as a design agency in glasgow etc. I hope it shall bring new clients my way etc.along with possibly being printed in the magazine, in there design chart system. which is easy to get in to as long as you update your mini site daily etc.

Right i need to go and contact a client, but i shall let you know how things go. As well as my driving.

take it easy
