Hey,

Good on ya' for mentioning Eighteen on this blog. I became personally involved in it when Cyndi Godden approached me to find a young person to be photographed. The guy's name is Mortada, an Iraqi with a TPV. She made a bloody great book. And it was cool to get our logo in it too - great publicity.
