FOWA post-mortem

07 Oct 2007

So we are back from FOWA, after our first (and hopefully not last) experience of running a stand at an expo. It was a really fantastic experience and we all had an amazing time there. Thank you everyone who came along and spoke to us, it was great to meet so many people and chat with you all. We will be trying to process all the contacts we made and responding to enquiries in the next couple of weeks.

More thanks goes to our fantastic team who contributed so much to an engaging stall, though the lure of the Xbox was at some points too much for some. Our thanks also goes to Gavin Strange for the all the decorative paraphenalia he produced to make our lively, if rather bemusing, display.

For those of you who managed to grab one of Gavin's amazing panda t-shirts, we hope you enjoy them, and wear them with pride. "Even Ryan got in on the panda love":http://www.flickr.com/photos/carsonified/1482580870/.

However, I'm sure there now exist many poor souls who could not attend, and are now feeling rather devastated at the lost opportunity. Never fear, we are gathering names and sizes of people who would like a t-shirt, and will try to produce a limited run of them soon. We are probably going to be avoiding retina-destroying green this time.

If you are interested, please drop us a line at "gimmeafreakinpandashirt@new-bamboo.co.uk":mailto:gimmeafreakinpandashirt@new-bamboo.co.uk, and we will get everything moving once we have enough demand.

We also have a collection of "new bamboo Flickr photos":http://www.flickr.com/photos/new_bamboo_london/, and would love to see any of your own panda sightings.
