		<title>Ian Ross caught with hookah</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Speaking of political incorrectness and Ian Ross.
Did we happen to mention last Friday night&#8217;s AIMIA Awards?
Well&#8230;
While it was an enjoyable night, no advertising event would be complete without a little vice.
So after the show the clickDM team indulged in some hookahs.
In this case, exotic Turkish ones.
And while they had a strangely minty fragrance about them, [...]]]></description>

		<title>You&#8217;re a real doll, Babs</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Lucky for us – especially Ian Ross – advertising has mostly avoided the scourge of political correctness.
Which is just as well because often the best advertising is about finding, then celebrating or confronting the truth in all its messy human inconsistency and frailty.
It ain&#8217;t always pretty.
Or PC.
Which is probably why Mad Men is so loved.

After seven years as Executive Manager, Strategy &#38; Sales at HOSTPLUS, Umberto Mecchi is moving on to a new challenge.
To wish him all the best with his new venture, THE DM GROUP got together bright and early this morning for some breakfast, bubbly and okay maybe just a little blubbering.
It’s understandable because Umby used to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Forget the Oscars, here come the Andys</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
The inaugural Andy Awards were an important part of our latest quarterly catch-up.
Conceived by and named after a very good-looking art director, only three coveted awards are up for grabs each quarter.
This time the honours went to:

Emily Pockley for Brief of the Quarter
David Buttigieg and Nina Ee for Creative of the Quarter
Our in-house treehuggers for [...]]]></description>

		<title>Three cheers for Hockley</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
THE DM GROUP quarterly catch-up is a time for all of us to get together, talk about the work we’ve done and have more than a few drinks.
Now you’d assume a quarterly catch-up happens quarterly but it’s actually been 12 months since our previous catch-up.
That meant some of our more enthusiastic colleagues had 12 months [...]]]></description>

		<title>Why does Craig have to sing every morning?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Because if he doesn’t sing his ‘Got me stuff’ song before he leaves home, he inevitably ends up forgetting something important.
Like his glasses.
Which he found very inconvenient today as he went about his usual senior art director business.
That’s why our ever helpful, handyman/production manager David Findlay made him a new pair.
Isn’t it amazing what you [...]]]></description>

		<title>Hey! We know that guy!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
We met Wayne Sullivan in November last year when he came down from Queensland to join our valued client HOSTPLUS as national marketing programs manager.
We’re delighted to hear that Wayne has now been appointed executive manager, marketing.
Is it too soon to say ‘we knew him when&#8230;’?
Congratulations on your new role, Wayne. We’re looking forward to continuing [...]]]></description>
