Aye up! It’s been a while hasnt it, nearly 4 months infact! I know I said in my last blog I’d be more frequent, but apparently I lied!

So here, we go, 4 months worth of pictograms for you to digest… grab a cuppa and put your feet up…
Foggy fog fog made the top of Brizzle dissapear

The fog over the water was bootiful, glad I had my camera with me

Me and Mel header over to Bath for Al’s AnyForty launch party!

I got to meet print-extroidinaire Mr Rik Penny of Ripe Digital fame (if you need ANYTHING printing, then Riks your man!)

Not much to do when theres dark nights apart from take time lapses

Oh yeah, and play Guitar Hero World Tour

All I heard one night was this almighty CRASH. Turns out Bobbie got a bit too excited running up the stairs and tripped, hit the stairs and covered the wall with his drink. I haven’t laughed so hard in ages.

We were well excited at work to check on the progress of the new Aardman building, so we went on a wee tour when it was close to completion

Our unfinished office

Podcast podcast! We had a pod and casted it as hard as we could.

I had a little accident, I thought the box would be stronger than before and could fully support the weight of a person.

I forgot that cardboard isnt the strongest material in the world.

Bikey bikey bikes. This is Louis’s, its special.

This one is Alex’s, also very special.

Lunchtime W&G viewings in the old Tobacco Factory office

This is Clark, our pet lemon.

I did a talk / presentation at the Apple store in Bristol!!!! This board was up in the week leading upto it, well stoked!

Go-bama day!

We had the Aardman Online crew round to my flat for a night of ROCK for young Mel’s leaving party

When we were moving out of the Tobacco Factory, the marketing & licensing team had a clear out of products they didnt need anymore, which basically meant a free-for-all!!

And so it came, the moving day!

Dan was organized and ready as always

I drew a picture of a Squirrel riding a fixie for the No Gears night at The Cube

It went off, it was packed! Stay tuned for the next one!!

We’re in! The move was smooth as butter

The new walk / ride home has got bootiful views!

My Apple talk went really well, thank you to everyone who came to check it out! Afterwards, we went to GBK to get our grub on

Kris, Jamie & Matt drove all the way from Lincoln to make the talk… LEGENDS!!!

It snowed. Alot. Everyone went mental and all of England broke down after some white frosty water covered the ground.

Jems not dead. She just wanted to take a low photo.

Tim makes alot of pretty thing. He can even make real-world pretty things like these bad boy plushes!

We made a cookie monster with boobs on the roof

Giant characters started invading work

We bought pork and it had nipples on. It was very strange

P.O.S.’s new album is ridonculous

I was lucky enough to be able to bring my Mac talk to the Regent Street flagship store in Londinium! Sarah and my brother came down

We checked out the dope shops in Carnaby Street

I went to Playlounge, the very first toy store i ever came across which started my vinyl obsession!

Afterwards we all went for Dinner

The very nice man Stu from Innocent Drinks supplied us with a whole tonne of goodies to keep us going!

Me and Sarah checked out the Natural History Museum on the Friday

We went to see Bolt in 3D, it was awesome!

Filming / photographing bikes!

Tim Ward shot some awesome snaps

Brick-o-chinese. Nice!

Jonny loves them.

Now the nights are lighter, bike rides are onnnnnnn!

Fixie Thursday has become fixie tuesday, wednesday & thursday! busy collecting footage and photos for the bike film!

A ride up Clifton Vale always results in rewarding ourselves with a visit to the Clifton chippy

More giant things finding their way into the building!

There was a friends & family day at work for employees to bring their loved ones around and show them the new building!

They had a timelapse film of the entire 2-year build condensed into 2 minutes, labelled ‘Aardmans Grand Design‘. So we piled into the cinema to check it out. I love my work!

Stretched our legs on the rooftop terrace!

Klingatron came down for a visit!

Rich and his beloved Carlton

Went along to the Crimes of Passion opener and was blown away!

As expected, the 45rpm / Richt / Sums wall was killer

China Mike’s skills are ridonculous too

Duncan & Dicey

Will Barras

The queue to get in stretched so far and took people an hour to get in! (We had the heads-up from Rich and got there early!)

Aardman Online was kindly invited to the VIP opening of the World of Cracking Ideas exhibition at the Science Museum in London! We did the website and game to coincide with the exhib (which I had the pleasure in designing) so we were well stoked to go!

Oh yeah, my phone popped out of my jacket whilst riding and smashed the hand-carved laser-engraved wooden case I ordered from Norway. WELL stoked that happened.

Anyways, thats all from me!
