Ain’t nobody gonna rain on our parade!

Today we unveiled the finished product to the world. But being a Monday, the world wasn’t readily available at 10:35AM to converge on the Victoria Park Chinese New Year flower market to witness our opening. Nevertheless, we weren’t discouraged from keeping smiling faces on as the press did come and interviewed our creatives about the oddity we created in the market.

Our first visitor of the day was Stacy from the Economic Times, and as any first-rate journalist would do, she asked an abundance of questions. But we were ready for the journalistic inquisition and satisfactorily answered every question. Including the one about the wet spot on the couch (looks like an occurrence of inter-office romance to us).

Then came Janice, a recent graduate from PolyU looking for a job in the advertising world. Foolishly she let two strange men lead her into the middle of a park for what they said was an “interview”. Luckily for her, the two strange men happened to somewhat be gentlemen (we say somewhat because the gentleman became extinct long ago with the end of fashionable double-breast frockcoats, snug leather breeches and the manly duels of the 18th and 19th centuries).

The biggest news of the day, literally, was the giant, almost disaster that we encountered when we first opened up shop. Mother Nature decided to take the piss, at our expense, and unloaded a mini-torrential rainstorm on our mini-office over the weekend. She can be a real *itch.

Look for us in Ming Pao today, we were promised a Play-girl style centerfold spread for our sexy creatives! We’re holding our breaths… and our lunch.
