injury and a possible client

Well I almost had to get stitches to hold my finger together but the doc ended up using a special glue which bonded the skin back into place. Revolutionary stuff.

I got a bit excited at how fast those tiles were coming down as we ripped down the entire sheet of plasterboard. Much more effective than my tame effort with the chisel and mallet… they sure came down fast, right onto my finger. The edge was razor sharp and sliced to within millimetres of the bone. Mum thought her one single worker was now long gone but after a dose of panedine forte we went from the doctors straight back to the site… some painting and filling calling but the tiles I’ll leave for someone else, Abuelita?

Strangely, one small job possibility came up amongst all this. During the day one of the scarce tradesmen turned up to look over the specifics of a job out the back. It turns out he’s getting new business cards printed… After one look at his mess of a card I suggested he needs a new design, I would be happy to do it, for a fee of course. Will be emailing him an example of one I’ve done in the past. He also mentioned that he would need some advertising work done in the future as he’s planning on expanding his business, things like a website, logo design etc. I’m sure we at Lantern Creative will be able to work something out for him.

Although that does bring up another thought…. Being that we do want to target businesses in rural Victoria/NSW what should we do about work that pops up in Melbourne through people we meet? I think that it would be benefficial for our business to take on small projects in Melbourne as It will give our business credebility. Seeing as we are starting out we need as much work as possible to develop for our folio.
