Blog on...

Want to keep up to date with what’s happening at Agent Marketing, who we are working with, and generally what is keeping us amused at Agent HQ? You do? Great, well let us introduce you to the Agent blog. It’s Agent Marketing in electronic form; new, innovative and as good as we have always been…

The gift that keeps on tweeting...

Without sounding too big-headed, I am a good gift buyer, a talent which has resulted in me becoming head of gift-procurement at Agent HQ. Whether it be for an Agent's birthday, a thank you gift for a client, or just a prize for our weekly Friday quiz (the subject of my next blog), I am on hand with only the company credit card to support me.  

This week however I have been presented with a challenge that even my retail skills could not satisfy. The receiver of this birthday gift? My friend Jeanette's mum, Ange. 

Now here are the facts:

- Ange is 60 years old this week (and is looking very good for it, may I add). 
- Ange is a lover of all things camp, and I mean camp. 
- Ange is a BIG pop music fan and when I say BIG (and the capital letters should emphasise this), I mean BIG. 
- Ange loves celebrities and everything about celebrities; what they do, and most importantly, where they go - but that my friends, is another story for another day (and blog). 

So, what do you buy a camp 60 year old lady with a passion for all things celebrity? Well apart from a cake adorned with celebrity imagery, I was at a loss as to what to buy. And then Wayne, the fountain of all knowledge came to save the day. 

The gift of Twitter. 

Yes, that is what I intend to do; build Ange a Twitter profile made up of all her favourite celebrities, so she can follow their every move. So when Elton nips out for a pint of milk, Ange will know. When Andrew Lloyd Webber decides to star in a new BBC reality show, Ange will know. Even Cher's (I did say she loved the camp) shopping basket contents will become knowledge for Ange. What an idea, and not a piece of wrapping paper willm be spared in the process - environmental advantages as well! Back of the net!

Have a super tweet 60th Ange...!
