    Hahahahaha, I've just remembered something from my past whilst on a reminiscing train of thought about when I used to work in branding for fashion. One of our brands websites was up for a Design Week award. It was the web design company up for the award but they were nice people and we all went along.

    I got massively drunk on the free drink during the award ceremony and then afterwards there was a big after ceremony doo somewhere else.

    I was talking to to a rival design company, I forget who it was, but they and us were sworn enemies and the conversation we were having was basically a fairly light hearted but quite heated slagging match, saying how shit the other was. I was on my own really against about ten people and they got the better of me, so I decided to rest on the big table behind me which was covered in lots of glasswear, trophies, bits of ceramic etc, like a giant display. Anyway, it wasn't a table at all, just a giant sheet of something on two tressals and the moment I rested on it, it rose up behind me like the Titanic sinking. I quickly got up again and everything banged noisily back into place but with no harm done.

    "Phew. Close call" I thought to myself, and put out my arm out to lean on the wall behind me.

    It wasn't a wall at all, just a fabric curtain divider. I fell straight through into another totally unconnected event on the other side, pounding into some bloke's back who fell into a woman in a really fancy frock spilling his beer all over here.

    I looked like a right cunt that night, I can tell you.
