Chris has always been a huge fan of the classic early-90s comedy flick Sister Act, so he was delighted when, on one of our recent trips into the capital, we came across this&#8230; the stage musical version featuring Whoopi Goldberg herself!
A dream come true for Chris, and he couldn&#8217;t resist re-enacting the pose.

A couple of the Splinter gang made their way down to London this week to check out BBC White City&#8230; what a great place it is! We thought we&#8217;d take some snaps to share with you all&#8230; but we forgot. So here&#8217;s some pics of us at Oxford Circus instead!

		<description><![CDATA[This morning, Chris Day and I finalised the voice over for the upcoming TravelWise Local Transport Plan viral video. We were really happy with how well it went and would like to thank the VO artist Cath Rice and studio engineer Mike at The Vocal Booth in Toxteth TV who were both brilliant.

I noticed a news item this morning on the Beeb about the Association of Chief Police Officers in England and Wales launching a new campaign in time for the festive season. It&#8217;s a campaign targeted at women and men warning of dangers drinking and sexual attacks whilst under the influence, something that doubles during December [...]

<p>I noticed a news item this morning on the <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/8385532.stm" target="_blank">Beeb</a> about the Association of Chief Police Officers in England and Wales launching a new campaign in time for the festive season. It&#8217;s a campaign targeted at women and men warning of dangers drinking and sexual attacks whilst under the influence, something that doubles during December and January according to many Police forces.</p>
<p>A scary fact I found out when we were coming up with ideas for Liverpool PCT&#8217;s current Psssst campaign (view <a href="http://www.splinter.co.uk/pssst-2009/">all about the campaign</a>) is that alcohol is the biggest date rape drug, something which shocked me, but makes a lot of sense if you think about it. The Pssst! campaign is running now until the festive period ends and includes posters, adverts and information on marshaled taxi ranks in the city centre.  For more information visit <a href="http://www.pssst.org.uk/" target="_blank">www.pssst.org.uk</a></p>
