We pass the time in the office today by running a competition, designed to gather Twitter followers, based on getting people to retweet a link and, hopefully, end up following our account. Lots of companies are doing this now - and I'm fairly proud that bringing this into our office was basically my idea - and it seems to work well. It's also handily quantifiable, meaning that Georgie is able to report back to our superiors exactly how effective the idea is. It's fun watching the follower and retweet count grow, to the extent that it becomes hard to stop watching.
On the way home from work I stop at Sainsbury's to pick up a couple of bottles of wine for a nice evening in with K, for which I cook up a tasty curry, and we watch a bit of telly while happily relaxing. I end up watching The Apprentice for a second time while K catches up, which doesn't bother me too much as I once again get to wallow in the sheer blind business swagger of this year's assembled gaggle of twats. We had originally planned to spend the later part of the evening playing Scrabble, but by the time bottle two gets started, neither of us quite has the energy for a vigorous word game. We're off to Dorset tomorrow for K's father's birthday - so we take the opportunity for a cosy, red-wine soothed early Friday night.
