Lee Branch said… - Hi Rory,
I was just seeing if there were any fellow UK'ers here and came across your profile. Are you London or US-based?
I saw that you like football, if you're in the UK on August 15th you should think about entering a team in The Media Sales Cup our 5-a-side football tournament for media owners. Full details are here - Media Football Tournament Website - let me know if it sounds interesting!
All the best,
Lee
