I was the team lead for the Yellow team, and had made some preparations for this! Prior to the event we were shown our team mascots, and could earn ‘points’ for weaving them into our day. Our mascot was a stuffed penguin, who I named Marconi as he very much resembled a ‘macaroni’ penguin.
Not being one to underplay a situation, I’d had a T-Shirt printed (yellow obviously) and some stickers made in his image.
I was joined on the day by 2 absolute superstars, Martin McMahon and Tom Ashworth. Not only are they really lovely, fun guys, they are also Power Platform geniuses! This meant that while they were working their magic, the least technical of us (me) could focus on the ‘lightening challenges’.
