I didn't do much. Came out of the right womb at the right time, I suppose.

The one re my new job? I got that as a PM.
Am I having a funny five minutes or have I got some of my settings wrong?

This doesn't seem to make any sense.

I can't imagine.

Anyhoo, I'm off to bed. First time pre-midnight in months.

Play nicely.

Going back to ideas for the new look - I've always imagined Metropol as being like a seedy club, and I'd like that to be reflected in the design. I think the logo should look like a neon sign, maybe with the bulb having gone on the E.

Something like the old Top of the Pops logo.

I'm shocked at you Phil, surely more fitting would be something like this from the popular 1980's ITV music show, you remember the one ? ;)

Yeah I'm sorry - I did a request to see if anyone had any caps of it some time ago, and it came back negative. I would have used that otherwise.

I did offer you a tape I had of Postman Pat. I thought it would be of some use :(

Was idling round youtube as you do and come across this vid. Some good potential skins for metropol in it. Namely the clocks and moons for the 24/7 bit.
