It seems I've been tagged


There’s an interesting viral idea meets chain letter mash up currently doing the rounds of the blogosphere.

It landed at Brand DNA the other day courtesy of Vando from the Jason Recliner.

In a nutshell it seems I have been ‘tagged’ and I now have to reveal five things you didn’t know about me. So here goes…

1: I have never owned anything by Nike. I’m an old school sportswear purist I’m afraid, so it’s strictly Adidas or Puma for me.

2: If it wasn’t for my wife I wouldn’t be sitting here writing this. She recognised my latent creativity and gave me the confidence to leave behind my job in the real world to pursue a career in advertising.

3: The highlight of my career was when a CD in London said that if he could have his career over he would have come to Melbourne to work with me.

4: I wouldn’t be half as smart as I am today if it wasn’t for my children. I know it’s a cliché, but they really do keep you young.

5: As much as I love the independence of working one on one with my own select group of clients I have to admit I really miss the buzz of working in a big agency.

The five people I’ve tagged are:

Ed who is a smart young lad from the RMIT Advertising degree.
Albert who is a friend of Ed and has one of my fave blogs.
The lovely Amber who shares my love of Eric Anderson.
One woman running around trying to get into advertising called Abi.
Up and coming young Melbourne creative Glenn Peters.

Nice work Stan.

I must admit I have a soft spot for Adidas, having been an over the top brand loyalist to the mighty Adidas Rome in my formative years.

Cool - now I know what it means!

Have to go dye my hair, but will have a think and then get on with writing my answers and then tagging other people.

Have a great Christmas Stan, ta for all your help - I'm still working my way through the brief you gave me - will let you know how I get on.

Happy New Year as well, may 2007 be the dog's bollocks for you :)

Tagged you right back, Stan. No, tagged doesn't seem to be the right word for keeping the loop going.

Brings me to one of my fave playground sayings, "You can't tig the butcher back!"

Cheers, and merry Christmas to youse all.

I'm a Nike and Sketchers girl - no other trainers have been on my feet apart from a pair of Adidas which I bought, wore around the house for a day before I decided they felt wrong and I took them back. Always wanted a pair of Converse though.
