We were delighted to receive the seal of approval from the head of media at a London high school this week. Upon catching a glimpse of a Golden Goose release, she swiftly got in touch…”it is actually the most perfect example of a press release I have seen and I would like to use it in my teaching.”

Hurrah!

So what exactly caught her eye? Our release announcing the global launch of BeautifulPeople.com with tips on where to find the world’s most attractive inhabitants landed in her inbox and is now available to students nationwide.

The Golden Geese have been causing a stir surrounding The Art of Conversation. This talkative card game hit the UK last week and journalists across the country are lining up for a good old fashioned chin wag.

From Toy News to the production team at the TV Book Club these little treasures are set to inspire great family conversations and tear teens away from texting.

We quizzed some media fans on their colloquial skills….

Vicki-Marie Cossar, features editor at Metro
Name your number one survival skill? – ‘I can go without washing!’

Jo Adnitt, commissioning editor at LOOK Magazine
What is the biggest bargain you have ever found? – ‘A vintage Jaeger shirt I won on Ebay for 99p’

Victoria Hall, fashion assistant at Stella Magazine
What is your favourite place? – ‘St. Petersberg in Russia. I went in July and highly recommend it’

This week our Goose On The Loose ventured to The Book Club for a night of Cocoa Caipirinhas, ping-pong and a curious preview of framed A-listers courtesy of Peter Anderson.

Anderson is a British photographer whose ‘Then And There, Here and Now’ exhibition will be on display at the Shoreditch hideaway until 26th September.

‘Then and There, Here and Now’ is a collection of black and white portraits created while Anderson was working in-house at NME in the 1980’s. His subjects are an attractive assortment of musical icons and early hip-hop talent; including a pre-blonde Madonna and Mick Jagger buried among excitable groupies. .

Anderson works closely with his subjects and opens a door to an era when music, fashion and politics first collided. Anderson’s giant photographic prints currently sell alongside Warhol, Basquiat and Banksy and his next project, ‘Here and Now’, capturing the local street style at the Arch Gallery in Deptford is sure to be a must-see.

Mia Magnolia Holt hand delivered some delicious cupcakes to the new office today. Each was is adorned with our favourite thing in the world – pic n’ mix.

Today at Goose HQ we got the thumbs up from our friends at T4 Towers! On hearing that that team T4’s computers had crashed we thought the only way to cheer them up would be with a lovely bag or two of Pic n’ Mix. It obviously went down well with the team as their tens of thousands of Twitter followers were inundated with pictures of the team enjoying the sugary treats or should we say “sugary tweets” throughout the afternoon!

GGPR’s controversial client BeautifulPeople.com once again commanded the features pages of the media this week with two double page spreads in Metro and The Times (http://women.timesonline.co.uk/tol/life_and_style/women/relationships/article7095612.ece). Both pieces were written off the back of our ‘Meet the members’ event at London club Chinawhite, an opportunity for members to meet face to face and for us to introduce case studies to the press (and something that was very successful indeed if these articles are anything to go by!) And our very own Rupert goose even got a special mention! ‘A Satyr?’ we gasped, in response to the journalist’s description of our delightful exec, surely he must be mistaken? His comment on the BeautifulPeople.com team being ‘reliably attractive’ on the other hand… now that’s more like it! Judge Rupert’s doe eyed look for yourself below!

When Gail Porter tweeted that she needed some Easter Eggs for a charity egg hunt for ‘The Childrens Trust’ we were more then happy to oblige. We contacted our client Woolworths.co.uk and supplied the team at Tadworth with a variety of Easter goodies for the day ranging from chocolate to bunny ears! We were delighted to hear that the event was a success and that over 2,500 guests raised over £12,000 for the charity. A very happy Easter indeed!

Never ones to shy away from technology, Golden Goose PR’s retail team has fully embraced this week’s 3d issue of Grazia. We’ve been loving augmented reality for sometime but it is brilliant to see it being used by our favourite weekly. As well as dancing with Flo, we’ve also been pulling silly faces at the Grazia web cam, see pic.

There was a collective WOOP at Goose HQ today when star intern Rupert received his A level results. Rupert, who re-took his exams this spring, was awarded an A grade in media.
