I don’t care about the prices, it’s the attractiveness of the ads that have got my attention. Made by National Television, see an example here.
Ooh this looks good.
So, we code web sites by hand. And one day, it hit us: our web workflow was wonky. We’d have our text editor open, with Transmit open to save files to the server. We’d be previewing in Safari, running queries in Terminal, using a CSS editor, and reading references on the web. “This could be easier,� we realized. “And much cooler.�
Damn right, head over to Panic and Download it now.
I’m loving Will Self’s room, he’s a man after my own heart.

Wedding Invitation
No I’m not getting married, Knotty and Kate are. I’m trying to do a wedding invitation for them though, above is my first effort. I kind of like it, Knotty’s surname’s Knott, when you get married you tie the knot… My housemate Sachi reckons it’s a bit blokey though, which I can see why. I just thought I’d post it incase anyone out there has seen any really great wedding invites that they could point me in the general direction of for inspiration?
Very exciting news from Unit 2 :) Our new house mate Nima and his band Hush the Many (heed the few) have their first single called Song of a Page out today, click here to download it from the itunes store. I was going to write out all the lyrics in the song as I think they’d look quite interesting, but I ran out of time on my lunch break… above is how the song starts though.
Going to see them play live tonight at Kings College London Students Union supporting ‘Fields’, you can find tickets here.
…I just like the polka dots on this website, if you’re a girl you might like the handbags too.

Much gorgeous printed matter to browse over at flag, a graphic design studio based in Zurich, Switzerland.
I’m very pleased to announce that I won this bottle of Hendrick’s gin for coming first place in the circus themed fancy dress competition at the Bethnal Green Working Men’s Club on Friday night. I’m even more pleased that there’s no photo of me in my outfit as it was a rather small leopard skin strongman’s tunic which would only cover one nipple at a time. If the two girls who invited me back to their house at the end of the evening happen to read this blog, I’m sorry I didn’t come, I was very very drunk, and yes I really regret it now…

Thanks, to Nokia for our N82 phone!
Tracking our progress right across America is no mean feet. Luckily we've had a good deal of help from the kind folks at Nokia, who supplied us with their latest N82 phone with Sports Tracker. It's what we're using to track our route with GPS, take our pictures and write our posts. Finally it's the tool we use to update the blog, whenever we get reception or a wifi area.
Who, What, Where, When?
Made in England by Gentlemen is a blog written by Cookie, who generally designs websites, draws cartoons, drinks too much, grows a moustache and browses the web for interesting & amusing stuff. But currently the only thing he's doing is walking northwards towards Canada with his mate Paul, if you're not interested in my holiday pics ;) and were hoping for some visual eye candy, may I suggest you check out my girlfriend's blog: Monster-Munch.
