It’s been a pretty packed week here at the BuyMyFace head office. It all kicked off with a very confusing conversation between Ed and me…
English Sweet Peas
For the benefit of Ed, this is a sweet pea
Ed: Ah yeh, we’re having sweet peas for breakfast!
Ross: What?
Ed: English Sweet Peas just sent us a batch of their finest product. Yum!
Ross: Sorry to burst your bubble here man, but I don’t think you can eat those.
Ed: Sure you can! ‘Sweet’ is a taste, and ‘Peas’ are something you eat. Besides, I’ve already had a packet of the seeds. They were goooooooood!
Ross: …
Ed: Do you want some?
Ross: No thanks Ed.
And with that, the week was underway. Ed had inadvertently ingested plant life, and I had a good feeling about things to come.
Twice
The following day we were whisked away to visit our sponsors at the annual Country Living Fair. It was actually pretty good! After some photos with Caroline from Twice, we went in search of some free tasters in the food section – a bit of cheddar cheese, a tiny cup of ginger ale, and a big mouthful of apple and sage sausage was all we needed for a well-balanced lunch.

The Big Drop with Ernst & Young
After the adrenaline rush that was the Country Living Fair, Ed and I felt pretty solid. ‘It’s going to be smooth sailing from here pal’ I said. I was wrong.
Once again, the world was in danger of complete destruction. It’s only hope, two masked heroes armed to the teeth with cheesy smiles and bad catchphrases … that’s right, it’s Super Ross and Incredible Ed! NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA Batma… I mean, Super Ross and Incredible Ed!
Our mission (regardless of whether we choose to accept it): to abseil down from the ninth floor of the Ernst & Young London office, thus raising money for Sport Relief and once and for all foiling Dr Doom’s evil plan.
KAPOW!
Indeed, we managed to flex our super hero muscles and prove to the world the awesome power of the BuyMyFace boys. But for those of you who still doubt our power…

Introducing Lord Ross and Lord Ed
I'm still, I'm still Rossy from the block
Now, most of you know us as Supreme Chancellor and Executive Titan of a multinational company. And that’s true. However, Ed and I are always on the lookout for new names. Thanks to Highland Titles, you may now refer to us as Lord Ross and Lord Edward esquire.
We have each been given one square foot of Scottish Highland, making us land owners, and giving us the right to the title of Lord (Lady if you’re a girl).
In honour of our new-found nobility, we poured a glass of brandy, retired to the drawing room (a.k.a Living Room) and basked in one another’s pride. Utterly spiffing old chap!
