Such a wild, surreal year it’s been, we hope you & yours have a truly wonderful time over the holiday season, and look forward to being back, in good company, with you all, real, real soon.
Some good news in these strange, uncertain times… today is our fifth birthday! - small victories and all that, we're absolutely delighted & incredibly proud to be celebrating, albeit virtually, such a great milestone.

Truly wonderful news, we’re sending love and congrats to the man himself, as we look forward to celebrating together, in good company, very soon.
It feels so long, but has been so very brief… all of us, all together, a little over two months ago, planning for a future which never came to pass. Now, as we find ourselves working together, to stay apart, staying the course to stay safe, our minds wander to fond memories, and look forward to time together, in good company, soon. So very soon.
Working together, to stay apart... in these strange, uncertain times, as we navigate the surreal circumstances we find ourselves in, we would like to take a moment, to give love & thanks to all the heroes, on the front line, protecting and caring for all of us, in this unprecedented time of need. To all the doctors, nurses, healthcare staff, to those working tirelessly to keep essential services, supply chains and utilities operating, the hauliers and delivery services, the retailers, the shelf stockers, the checkout staff, to the police and army forces keeping us safe, to all those innovative educators, teaching our children from screens around the world, to the journalists and media outlets helping to inform and educate our people, and to the many, many more, we are, and always will be, profoundly grateful. Stay safe, stay strong, all our love, from all at AndCo.
So, today’s a free day, an extra few hours to live a little more, intriguing… the whole idea of a leap day has our minds wandering, wondering, if you could do anything, anything at all, for 24 hours, what would you do? Sitting on a beach in the Maldives, from sunrise to sunset, no wifi, no calls, just endless Piña coladas, seems like a good start to us! …well, whatever you decide to do with your free day, make sure you enjoy it, in good company!
An impressive milestone… today marks Pierre’s 20th anniversary in new tech, joining Yahoo, from his beloved Disney, on this day back in 1999… to put the timeline into perspective, it’s the same year Mark Zuckerberg started High School! An incredibly fast paced industry, intense pressure, requiring constant innovation, Pierre’s enthusiasm and energy always live up to the challenge! Continually pushing boundaries, over the last twenty years, we look forward the next twenty, in good company, with the man himself!
It’s the most, wonderful time, of the year… as this decade draws to a close, we want to give massive thanks to all our families, friends, colleagues, clients & partners, around the globe, for keeping us in such good company! We hope you & yours have a truly wonderful time over the festive season, and look forward to seeing you soon, in twenty twenty, enjoy…

Mixed with emotions, Margot’s sad to be finished her travels, but excited to catch up with family and friends, telling stories of her trip, her most amazing experiences, in good company.
Today, on Alfred Nobel’s anniversary, we celebrate a select group of truly exceptional men and women from around the world with the awarding of the Nobel Prize, in recognition of their achievements towards academic, cultural, & scientific advances, or as the man himself said ‘for the greatest benefit of humankind’. Each year, the Nobel Laureates come together, in good company, in Stockholm, to meet with the Swedish King receiving their individual awards, with one exception… ironically, the Nobel Peace Prize is awarded separately, in Oslo, Norway, as back when in 1905, when Alfred Nobel envisioned the awards, Norway and Sweden were united. Just some random trivia for a Tuesday…
Gobble, Gobble, gobble... to all our American friends & family, we hope you and yours have a truly wonderful Thanksgiving, a time for kindness, gratitude, and most importantly, good company! Enjoy…
As the adventure draws to a close, Margot’s making the very most of her last few weeks, taking every opportunity to explore more of the worlds wonders… this time, delving into the second deepest canyon in the world, the Colca Canyon in southern Peru.

Wonderful stuff, we adore the idea… so go on, show some love, in good company, of course!
Taking some time to reflect on the wild & wonderful Around the World adventure, Margot met with her friend from Paris, to trek through the Sajama National Park on the border of Chile.

We’re soooo jealous!
That’s right… we’re posting, about post, to celebrate World Post Day! Good old Snail Mail, in all its glory… pen to paper, the lick of a stamp, the excitement & wonder, who’s it from?, what’s it for?… pen pals and secret admirers, it’s all very nostalgic and romantic, or perhaps that’s just us! Replaced by so many ‘bings’ and ‘pings’, a bit of nostalgia on a Wednesday isn’t such a bad thing now is it…? We’d like to say enjoy the celebrations, but lets face it, this is probably the first you’ve heard of it! …but it’s a big thing, seriously! …a great day, celebrating postal systems around the world, keeping us all, in good company, for many generations past, and many more to come.

Mirror, mirror, on the floor… allowing us to see so much more!

Angkor is the earthly representation of Mt Meru, the Mt Olympus of the Hindu faith and the abode of ancient gods, the temples are the perfect fusion of creative ambition and spiritual devotion. As Margot say's, the '8th Wonder of the World', a truly wonderful experience, trekking through the 38 degree heat, absolutely melting... in good company!
Over forty years of the force... a cultural and creative revolution, a universe for generations to enjoy, & now, the passing of a legend. Today we celebrate Star Wars Day, whilst we mourn for the great Peter Mayhew, aka Chewbacca. Rest well our Wookie hero.
