Congratulations to David Wayman on the launch of his new shop on the Avenue in Spinningfields. We popped down to have a nosey on Friday night where it was bursting at the seams with potential clients.

Congratulations Mike & Katrina on the arrival of little baby Jenson! So cute!!

Thanks to Jon Shard for treating us all to some festive cakes this week, here’s Gemma and Natalia enjoying some of the more attractive looking ones.

We’ve sent out our christmas gifts, which contain Creative Spark wrapping paper and cards. Here’s Rach from Ocean’s Events sporting our wrapping paper as a lovely dress!

We’ve got Nick (Hammo) in the office at the moment decorating our meeting room. We can’t give too much away but watch this space, or if you need any work doing book a meeting with us to have a closer look at our newly decorated meeting room.

If you want to have a nosey at some more of Hammo’s work go to his site www.thehammo.com

Today sees us all wishing a happy 18th birthday to Emma. She put on her best sulky face when the camera came out but we managed to catch her usual smiling self a moment later.

This week we’ve had the talented young Megan Lane with us on work experience and wanted to share the fantastic little stop motion animation she’s created with you all. At only 15 years old, she’s one to watch out for in the next few years!

It was a baking summers afternoon in Manchester and the unforgiving heat hung heavy in the Creative Spark studio, the only sound a gentle whir of a desk fan overlaid with the staccato rhythm of mouse clicks and key taps as the team worked diligently. As the clock’s hands created a fleeting but perfect horizon, there began a shuffling of feet and a small but ever-growing furore around the sofa. Delicious snacks and fine beverages were brought forth from their staging area in the kitchen, the electronics were tuned to The Beeb and the last few members of staff, still thus far engrossed in their work, were gently encouraged to join the rest of the team to witness what could have been England’s last grasping hope at planetary football domination for the next four years. Luckily, we won.

Roll on Sunday and our first match of the knockout stages!

Meet Tom, he’s spending the next 3 month’s with us on placement as part of the Manchester Masters scheme. He’s one of the chosen 10 on the scheme this year, so it’s an absolute pleasure to have him on board helping out on all things marketing. Why this picture? I have no idea, answer’s on a postcard please.
