Enjoy! Strange and Familiar: Britain as Revealed by International Photographers This fascinating exhibition has been captivating audiences since it opened, and June is your last chance to see what all the hype is about!

Bloomsbury and Fitzrovia: A Photo Essay

On a rare, sunny day in the city, after looking longingly out of the office window at snap-happy tourists, we decided we wanted a piece of the action. As London workers, we rarely get the chance to experience the city through fresh eyes, and as one of the most bustling, vibrant capitals in the world, it really does deserve our full attention every now and then. So, we chucked on our sunnies, grabbed the communal Nikon, and headed out onto the streets to capture what we love so much about our own little slice of London.         [...]

A Pizza Lunchtime Fun…

Here at SESOME, we love a good pizza. Individually we are all connoisseurs of the beloved hot slice (including, sadly, those sold in our local Sainsbury’s at lunchtime), and as a team we can happily chat for hours about the correct ratio of cheese to tomato base. Hell, even Lurkey was once found beak-deep in a Pepperoni Passion during an office Domino’s session. It was then with a great deal of excitement we headed off down Tottenham Court Road (or ‘ToCoRo’ as we fondly know it) for our regular Mid-Month Munch, to secure a table at Franco Manca. Having been [...]

Our Five Favourite Festive Films

With all the Yuletide shenanigans the festive season has had to offer, at SESOME we're feeling the Christmas spirit like it's no one else's business. But, once the mulled wine has been downed and the last karaoke rendition of All I Want For Christmas Is You has been had, we're looking forward to curling up in the sofa to watch anything involving sappiness, snow and Santa. So now we're going to share our favourite Christmas films with you. Enjoy! Adrian: Gremlins: Not necessarily a Crimbo classic, but then there are only so many times you can watch Home Alone! I saw this [...]

The Bird is the Word

At SESOME, we like to think of ourselves as pretty decent people. We work hard, recycle stuff, and always defend Sue Perkins when she’s bad-mouthed in the building. So last week when a little feather-clad fella’ showed up on our doorstep, we obviously had to take him in. Wrapped in a tiny blanket and with a thimble of scotch at hand (turkeys are notoriously big on scotch), our new friend let us know his name was Lurkey, and he’d escaped the other side of the pond when he found out that the Thanksgiving dinner party he’d been looking forward to [...]

Music to Our Ears?

It is a truth universally acknowledged that when it comes to selecting a communal office soundtrack, there will be disagreements. For the most part here at SESOME, we live in harmony. We are all experts and whipping up each other’s preferred hot beverage with no trouble at all, (whether it be the ‘Sanna Speciale Coffee’ or Emily’s forte ‘Builder’s Tea’) and our stomachs have synchronised to perfection when it comes to deciding the ideal moment to exit the office in search of lunch. However, this unity is shattered the second Adrian utters the well-worn phrase ‘are we feeling headphones today, [...]

The Summer of London According to SESOME

We make no secret of the fact that we love working slap-bang in the middle of London. There’s something about this city that brings out the fun side in everyone who lives/works/spends time here. For this reason, we thought we would highlight just a few of the ways in which the capital has risen to the occasion so far this summer, and provided some of the most ingenious, hilarious and just plain cool celebrations and activities for real fun in the sun! Wimbledon on the Big Screen – There’s no British summer without Wimbledon, and we got our fix chilling [...]

Time to Say Goodbye to Lia

We had the pleasure of having Lia as a graphic design intern for two months. Apart from good memories she also left us with this message: HELLO! Thank you so much for the last 2 months. It’s been a great internship with you guys and I’m so honoured to have worked with such an amazing team. I’ll miss you guys! But expect me to show up at future parties—I mean, only if you miss my presence (of course you will) and would like to invite me. Jamie— Hey friend!! From teaching me neat tricks here and there on programs to [...]

Time to Say Goodbye to Sean

Sean, our intern, who has been with us for the last 8(!) months left us for new adventures last week. But he didn't leave us without this letter: I, the under-mentioned by this document do declare my true intentions, my last day at SESOME. This company has been my first stepping stone into the real world, I was taken from the dream world of University in the dead of night and carefully nourished over the past 8 months into the real world by a great team. Adrian, Jamie, Sanna and Ellie at SESOME has shown me reality isn’t that bad [...]

Merry Christmas from SESOME

This year is nearly up, and here at the SESOME office, the Christmas cheer is at an all-time high. We are listening to Mariah Carey on repeat and drinking spiced hot mulled Ribena by the gallon. We have made this little card to say HAPPY CHRISTMAS! We feel it reflects all our personalities to perfection. Adrian the ringmaster, controller of all. Ellie the young Princess, butter wouldn’t melt. Sean the noble Prince. Jamie the class clown. And Sanna, the only one who actually taking this Christmas thing seriously. So we hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and a Happy [...]
