The sun might be shining but dark clouds are gathering

“Here comes the sun do, do, do, Here comes the sun, And I say it’s all right.” Yep, after a few false dawns, you probably don’t need George Harrison to tell you that spring has finally sprung and that I’m in a particularly chipper mood today.

Not only is the mercury rising with the Bank Holiday looming large but there is now a whole summer of fun to look forward to. I also have this year’s DM Girls’ Getaway (Foxy’s French Adventure) 3.0 to plan.

Mind you, my mood has certainly lifted since earlier in the week. There I was, busy keeping calm and carrying on, when up popped my esteemed boss, waving a piece of paper and gesticulating wildly.

What have you got there, I enquired, an exciting invitation to a summer bash or maybe a letter praising us for keeping the marketing industry sane while our lesser rivals bang on about Cannes, AI and “Why It Works”?

Sadly not, dear Foxy fans, I’m afraid it was actually an email from a seemingly disgruntled reader.

What, I hear you ask, is there such a thing? Well, as you know, we do try to cater for every whim and fancy on this august website, but it seems some sensitive soul is rather upset by my constant references to the joys of sex, and in particular my regular references to IllicitEncounters.com.

And I quote: “While your website can be highly informative, I have to ask why you persist in publishing the Idol Gossip column? As far as I can tell, it is just an excuse for you to talk all about sex and criticise other marketing magazines. Are you sure this column is relevant?”

Well, to be fair, I often ask myself the same question, but hey who am I to question the old soak? And, apparently it is one of the most popular parts of the site, although I am not too sure what that says about the rest of the nonsense we bash out.

Still, lighten up, it’s spring: “Little darling, I feel that ice is slowly melting, Little darling, it seems like years since it’s been clear. Here comes the sun do, do, do. Here comes the sun. And I say it’s all right…”

Foxy has ditched but is still on Instagram,  just don’t get too excited as she’s never there
