Sherry

Sherry loves competitions. And cakes. So what could be better than combining the 2 in our first annual Bake Off Competition?

We were all asked to do our best ‘Mr Kipling’ and bake a sweet or savoury delicacy that would put the Master Chefs to shame. After a particularly arduous tasting session, and still high on sugar, marks were awarded for Best Overall, Best Tasting and Best Looking. The winners then walked off with possibly the best looking trophies ever.

There has since been a spike in membership requests at the Ironmonger Row gym.

At Sherry we have been busy working on Sygenta’s UK site, which is now live! The site has a dedicated Learning Zone and we are very pleased that it is featured in the latest Planet Science Newsletter as their recommended website of the week!

This is Saab’s latest TV commercial. Nice concept, nice delivery and nice soundtrack from the Swedish singer Asha Ali. A TV ad with added imagination and creativity – now that’s an interesting concept!

Tuesday the 18th marked the first anniversary of our move to our new offices in Ironmonger Row. Although most of the studio were unaware of the approaching anniversary, a few sharp cookies remembered and orchestrated a succession of anticipation-building mystery emails. All of this culminated in a surprise 1st anniversary party which we celebrated in true ‘one year old’ style – balloons, party hats, bunting and a fabulous cake! Of course there were games – adapted in true Sherry fashion. We were also mentally challenged in a quiz that tested our knowledge of our local surroundings and even each other (guess the ring tone!). A big thanks to Ellie, Narcis and Laura for a  great surprise party!
