Ad types are out in force here at Brighton. I spotted SSF over-lord Robert Senior surrounded by a gaggle of giggling blondes making their way into the secure zone late last night but before that I also overheard someone from Saatchi & Saatchi having trouble getting into his room at the Thistle where I'm told Labour's ad agency is decamped. I should note that the hapless ad man was extremely polite although he clearly wanted to throw a massive strop.
Then from my perch high in the balcony during Gordon's speech today I spied Karmarama's fragrant Nicola Mendlesohn sat a few seats away from BMB's Trevor Beattie in the front row of one of the blocks near the stage. At the end they even got kisses and handshakes from the PM and Sarah (just to be clear Gordon didn't kiss Trevor) as the M People classic 'Moving on up' blared out.
Will any of the ad-erati be present during Tory leader David Cameron's address to his conference next week? If we see any of Soho's leading lights cheering on Dave then surely he can claim his decontamination project has finally worked.
