Wow! It's amazeeeee!
Making graphics, chilling out, and going out with the boss's wife for ice cream... aka 'going to bank' is SO much fun!
and yesteray we went the shop and sat and read mags and ate sweets for 15 mins xD

The boss/owner also loves my graphic style and is so impressed with me! He told me I have an 'eye' for graphics and I should persue it in the future (I was gonna anyways!) :bigsmile:

The boss's wife told me that the night before after I left he was saying how amazed he was with me :blush2: They use Adobe Illustrator, which I've never used before, so they're shocked how quickly I've picked stuff up!

I also get to click and make any graphics that I like, and they have a giant printer because they do like shop signs and graphics to go on vehicles, so I'm making McFly graphics ready to print off xD

So yea, I love it! Xx

Hehe! Thank you! Made me feel quite special!

The whole place has a great sense of humour too! They were making this thing for a hospital, and they have pictures to put on it (its like a huge board with little holders to put pictures) and they said they will get pictures of a*ses off the net and shove them in HAHA!

There is a WE youngster
in the Monkey Dust Adult Animation.

It is Dark Humour
so if they tell the WE girl
to put water into a mains socket
she does it, all part of learning gag.

The DVD just around a fiver on amazon.

Part 2 DVD could not be made
as they showed Muslim Bombers,
who kept making a mess of it,
in a family home.
And that was just before 7/7/05 in London.
So the BBC got scared and stopped production
of the Series 2 of Monkey Dust.


Stu would like it.

My work experience put me off wanting to be a teacher, I wanted to teach until year 10. Kind of realised I couldn't have a job so normal haha.

I worked at this police station thing, and I wanted to pick up the phone but all I was allowed to do was pretend to answer the phone and practice what I would say. Yawn
