I meant to post this in December, but just before Christmas I threw some drinks for some of the freelancers I know in London. It was a fun night, and it was especially good to meet people I’d emailed a lot but never met in real life – like fellow SEO freelance consultant Tim Aldiss from Think Search.

At the freelancer drinks. The only pic taken (because I’m lousy at taking photos) – my friend and mentee Christina Lai presenting me with some green tea she bought back from her travels. Also, apparently I had quite the beard in December.

What’s more, Judy from Work From Home Wisdom was unable to make the drinks, but she wrote a piece for the Guardian’s Small Business Network called How to plan a freelance Christmas party – and I’m in it.
