What she said. An accidental tag in among few folk I missed chatting with in the increasing cesspitting of late 23 twitter/X gave birth to a weekly chat/squad/conversation/laugh. It may have my name on the door but it’s @bruceclarkprof and the punters who make it. Come by 😝 🍻

On behalf of ‘Simon’s Place’ you’re a legend and look forward to seeing how you enjoy retirement. More trips to England with your wife I hope?

[Simon Akers @Simon83]

With world as it is / polarisation of media, we need good energy/convo again. Said to @graemefraser I want to get old twitter vibes back. A sort of community. People I’ve learnt from and enjoyed talking/joking with? You ok another Platform?? I miss us. Let’s take back control 😂

Time for in person life. But wanna say - Cheers everyone! What a year! Merry Christmas break and see you at the place in 2025!

Ps in my biz it’s 25% up front for any new client, if they so much as raise brow at that it’s ciao/au revoir. Fin

Into storage it all goes for a little while. Changing things up a bit. Some exciting plans, but also some unknowns to embrace. Life’s too short to not live how you want to / should be. 🌎 ♾️

Some things just have to be shared 😃 🌳

But my point/the ad-set I’m pondering is the 1 min brand films they all also do, so much more awareness than product shifting. Where’s the differential there etc?
