So we won an award. Or at least we have been pronounced amongst the 10 most innovative bods in publishing. Hurrah. And congratulations to all the nominees and winners in the h.Club 100 across all the different categories.

For those of us in attendance at the Hospital Club in Covent Garden last night, it was a ceremony that will live long in the memory, although not necessarily for the right reasons. I love British cynicism as much as the next shortlisted candidate, but the indomitable Laura Dockrill was right to make her point so dramatically during the pronouncements.

Of course David Bowie and Helen Mirren or even Charlie Redmayne were nowhere to be seen. So what? For the individuals or small companies and start-ups who did show it means a lot. A little recognition goes along way.
