Year One finishes in a few weeks for @LittleBigPR - we're still here, and doing pretty fucking well. Eight people work for us, we're a solid business, and there's a lot more to come. I'd call that a great start.

This isn't everyone involved in launching The Falconeer - but it's lots of them. Look at their lovely faces

Incredibly sad to hear the news about Jonathan Fargher. He was an absolute gentleman, and generous with his time and advice - one of the best PR people I worked with when he was a journalist. I've got so many great stories, but here's one of them.

Cherish the good days and share all of the love you have with those in your life with an open heart, whenever you can. I'm going to be off here for a bit, because she meant the world to me. Love you, Nan, and thank you for the extra cuddles today x

After spending 17.1% of my life working for Premier, today is my last day. That’s 6.5 years, or 59,912 hours. That’s long enough, I think.
