0.5s of fame…

Sky News

See that. That’s me on Sky News. My 0.5s of fame which appeared about 5 seconds into this video and here’s a pic of the Sky cameraman filming me :)


mpg_london-2631The general concensus on the news sites is that there were over 2000 photographers there and it all went off pretty smoothly. The entire police presence consisted of four blokes who were apparently the ‘usual number’ for Trafalgar Square.

Stuck a few of my pics up on Flickr, and there are loads from the event in this group and a few comedy shots I noticed other people posted of me too.

it was a bit of a shame that a few odd individuals sought to hijack what was otherwise a completely chilled out affair to promote their own cause. There were a couple of Islamic types wandering through the crowds flag waving etc. but apart from them it was generally just a bloody good laugh.

Met up with Steve (PVB from YakYak) for the event itself and then with Matt (Matt303) and Jacqueline (TheGoodbyeGirl) afterwards for drinks and general geekery down the Tottenham Court Road. Deffo fancy another trip down there in a couple of months when I’ve cleared all my debts!

In other news. Hmm, well yeah, meh. I’m putting a brave face on it, trying to keep busy to distract myself and generally in need of a bit of TLC. Offers of distraction all gladly accepted!
