300 books an hour


Records are set and records are broken all the time, especially where speed is concerned. On track and field, in the pool, on tarmac, on water and through the air. The human endeavour to go quicker, faster and stronger knows no bounds.

This morning at Slideshow, we smashed through a little speed barrier ourselves. 300 A5 colour books were printed and bound within the hour. 300 'double-sided' books that is, which is certainly no mean feat. But our client set a deadline and we delivered and met that deadline, without barely breaking a sweat. The only shame was that no-one was around to witness this extraordinary spectacle; the crowd, if we had one, would have surely been on their feet, roaring.

Nevertheless, my colleague Nick is now on the phone to the Guinness Book of Records to see if we can get the time verified.

It's looking good so far but there has been mention of dope-testing.

We should be fine, we have nothing to hide, we only had a couple of coffees.
