Thanks to D&AD for asking me to judge the best of Newblood: a great selection of student work and some very promising newcomers who are hopefully being snapped up right now by a tentatively buoyant industry.
Good luck, grads!
Win!
Thanks to all the eagle-eyed visitors who've entered our online Spot The Brand© competition. We've had a steady stream of entries but, at the time of blogging, no one has put their X on the correct coordinates. Which means there's still time to enter and win! The competition closes when the next issue of Thoughts goes live in July, so get over to the June issue of Thoughts right now and start spotting...

Thanks to our man on the ground in SA, 300million's World Cup single has just taken on a new, international lease of life. After a fortuitous meeting with our guy at the Cup (the ever-resourceful Graham), we are now proud to announce that the official North Korea Travel Club are Joe Fagin fans. Keep your eyes peeled for glimpses of That's England Alright merchandise gracing the terraces during this afternoon's Portugal v North Korea game.
We're not sure how Graham explained the concept of (deep breath) a four-year-old, re-released World Cup single originated by a brand design company and based on the theme tune of 80's Germany-set TV show 'Auf Wiedersehen, Pet', re-sung by original vocalist Joe Fagin... but it worked.
