Awards galore!

On to happier and less controversial things!
We had a real purple patch last Thursday when we picked up not only the Document Manager Award for printer product of the year but also the BOSS federation award for Environmental manufacturer of the year. What a great result!

I was at the Document Manager awards and we were thoroughly entertained by comedian Adam Bloom, and almost as thoroughly entertained on the train back to Reading by an extraordinarily inebriated Australian from Ericsson who had been wildly celebrating the end of a major project at the Tate Modern with what sounded like the entire company.

I generally like awards ceremonies (especially when we win of course), but there's generally pretty good food, and at least a B-list comedian - think Mock the Week sort of standard. I don't tend to get quite as sozzled these days as I used to back in my heady youth, although I'm always up for a party. The Green IT magazine awards will take some topping though - we ended up at the barracks of the Grenadier Guards next to Buckingham Palace wielding dress swords at 2 a.m. Oddly enough I was wearing the same dress at the DM awards last Thursday, maybe it's a lucky dress...
We're shortlisted for CRN vendor of the Year and now also Thames Valley Business of the Year - both of which are on 18th November, so fingers crossed for another great double!
