Hello

hello – come in and make yourself at home

The Woodies have a blog. It’s a kind of collective. Not sure we’re about to start a revolution baby, but we might kindle a small debate or two and perhaps raise a smile. Anyway, rather than just blogging corporate Woodreed by fielding our top Woodie (as so many other companies seem to do in a thinly veiled attempt at impressing with their profundity), we wanted all our individual voices to be heard. An agency’s most valuable assets are its people after all. Everyone’s got something to say here and with us everyone’s ideas and opinions matter.

Each week someone different will be blogging. It's mostly about stuff that rocks our world as well as the flipside – the things that just don't cut it with us. We'll blog about inside and outside – inside this glorious industry where we work and outside in the real world.
It's a bit of an experiment, so go with us on this one.

Hope you enjoy.

Lake Como

I have just spent a wonderful week in Italy, part of which was spent on Lake Como, for me one of the most inspiringly beautiful places I have visited.

The sun shone for us, the water was glistening, every garden was immaculate, the food devine, wine superb, and far too much of it, the people ever so friendly, and the water taxi drivers lots of fun!

The highlight for me was a little place called Villa Monestario in Verenna. The gardens are the main attraction as they meander along the river side being flagged on the other by the mountains. The terraces are filled with exotic plants and flowers and some of the most unusual statues I have seen. It was just beautiful, definitely a photographers paradise and what a place to be a gardener!
