Time Out is taking me to New York!

Posted May 24, 2000 8:59 AM.

Best news of the moment - I am sitting at work thinking about this site I am building for Time Out which covers all the summer festivals in the UK when I get given an envelope by my boss. I open it and read the first paragraph: "You have been invited to celebrate the fifth birthday party ..." - sounds cool - "of Time Out New York" - sounds cooler - "in New York City in October - all flights, hotel etc included!" - OH MY GOD. All permanent staff are tromping off over the Atlantic for an epic piss up and shopping expedition. How cool is that?!
