We've Received Our 25th Package!

Thursday, November 26th, 2009

At last, after some serious elasticated anguish, we have received our 25th package of red rubber bands. A dear benefactor, Brian The Legend, saw fit to donate an absolutely colossal amount of bands to ensure Pepe’s growth remains healthy – nay, unstoppable! Brian, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts, and a wee gift is on its way to you.

As you can see from the picture below, the excitement of receiving so many red rubber bands was a little too much for JennaWoot to bear:

Oh, happy day!

The packages have been trickling in still, and our wall of post for Pepe now looks like this:

It stands as a testament to his popularity that such an outpouring of public support now decorates our office – well done everyone! We need more packages though, so keep sending them in! If yours is the 50th package we receive, then you’ll win a prize!

All packages should be sent to:

Pepe, Creative Department
Unit C11 Parkhall Trading Estate
40 Martell Road
London
SE21 8EN

A disturbing turn of events…

Pepe’s Progress is, as we have previously established, pretty unstoppable. The show of public support for this red rubber band deity is second-to-none, and we, as an office, have been truly touched. Apart from Customer Services, of course. With all this positivity in mind, it is with great regret that we have to report another piece of hate-mail directed at our beloved Pepe:

Sick.

We do not know who sent it, but we are taking this very seriously. The culprit is obviously just jealous of Pepe’s might and stature, and is TOTALLY LAME. What does it even mean? Send them where? Is it from the dreaded RAUL?! Are Customer Services to blame? We’re considering turning this disgusting artefact into a paper plane and lobbing it into the Thames. Tied to a brick.

Pepe's Progress

Tuesday, November 17th, 2009

As you can see, Pepe is now something of a minor giant, stalking the IWOOT office with the ease and demeanour of a jungle cat. It’s all thanks to you, generous blog readers and rubber band senders – we are truly touched by your dedication to Pepe’s cause.

The tail-end of last week saw a mammoth package containing a reported 427 elastic bands (as detailed here) and, truth be told, it was this behemoth that saw Pepe truly take off. As things stand currently, we’re wrapping each band around only once rather than twice or three times. That’s how serious things are getting.

Day 4

Of course, we still need more, so keep them coming in:

Pepe, Creative Department

If yours is the 25th, 50th or 75th package we receive then you’ll win a small token of our gratitude, so make sure you include your postal and email address along with your phone number. We’re getting there, folks!
