All About 10 Yetis

The best way to get to know us is to give us a call on +44 (0)1452 348211.

If you don't feel ready for Yeti Power quite yet, have a read of the info below...

Originally two successful freelancers, Andy & Jilly. Andy did words, Jilly did images. After combining for a number of projects we realised how much more we could offer if our collective forces were united.

That was back in 2005, since then we've moved to bigger and better offices, and gained some awesome new PR and creative yetis to join the family, including a Basset Hound who goes by the name of Hugo.

We all sit together in one big room mostly listening to Andy's "motivational" songs (as I write this the PR team are demonstrating the moves to Black Lace's "Superman" for our techie developer Martin.)

Our team is made up of an eclectic mix of people which is reflected in what we produce and our offices are fun and friendly - if you're passing why not pop in and say hi?

What musical instruments do you play?

I am more well known for having some pretty sweet singing skills but in addition to this I have Grade II Violin, Grade I Flute and self-taught keyboard skills. Sadly I gave up Violin due to a neck injury and the Flute because it gave me nose bleeds (nothing to do with making up excuses to go play football!)

What's your proudest moment?

In a work environment my first Page 3 lead story in the UK’s largest national newspaper. Outside of work it would probably be conquering my fear of heights by jumping off a cliff that was at least 100ft high (or there about) into a river in Mexico.

Walk or drive?

Train… they are not as bad as people make out.

Office Darts Skills: Andy is best known for his wit and charm (he says). His darts skills are impressive, but nonetheless, modesty is not one of his strong points.

What was your first ever job?

A powder puff packer, age 13! I was quickly promoted from Boots powder puffs to Marks and Spencer but sadly decided it wasn't the career for me and I left.

What album would you take to a desert island?

It would have to be something motivational to stop me basking in the sun and get myself outta there - hmm, Chili Peppers: Blood, Sugar, Sex, Magic.

Socks or shoes?

Socks! Preferably warm ones, by an open fire close to a nice glass of vino...unless we're talking Manolo's, then it's shoes!

Office Darts Skills: Renowned for her super sweet colouring-in skills, Jilly is naturally attracted to the pastime of darts by the bright colours on the board and darts. Her unorthodox Southpaw stance confuses opponents, and has resulted in upsets.

If you could have any superpower what would it be?

I would want the power to control people’s thoughts. Not in an aggressive, dictator style way, but in an ‘I’m going to get my own way’... way. So, kind of like a dictator, now I come to think of it, but with less pillaging. Marginally. If I had this power, I would always be right, whether I was or not. I would succeed at everything I did, I would do whatever I pleased and I would get away with anything I wanted.

What would you do on a perfect Sunday?

My perfect Sunday involves a mix of going to the gym, playing with my daughter, enjoying time with my girlfriend, friends and family, shopping, and eating tuna and chicken. Lots of tuna and chicken. For once, I’d like to ‘surprise’ Maia by waking her up at a time she’s tired (3am sounds good), by running shouting and screaming into her bedroom, chanting her name repeatedly until she had a mental breakdown/understood the underlying message of revenge behind my efforts. She’s 20 months old at the minute, so I could be chanting for a while. NOTE – I love her doing this really and would miss it if she didn’t do it - who wouldn’t want a pre-alarm clock alarm?

Cats or Dogs?

Dogs. Cats, despite being self-sufficient are still needy creatures. They like to receive love and affection, without giving anything back other than mutilated carcasses of things they no longer want. If you disagree with me, you are wrong.

Office Darts Skills: Rich brings to the board arrogance and a competitive nature far beyond his playing ability. He is always up for a challenge, and uses Derren Brown mind bobbins to befuzzle pretenders to the throne.

What is the worst advice you have ever been given?

That the best cure to a hangover is hair of the dog. Followed by being dragged (kicking and screaming by my housemates) to the pub. It did the trick, but I didn't make the 9am lecture the next day to say the least.

Best ever purchase?

A blanket from IKEA, I know it sounds lame! It was a real impulse purchase at the end of a mammoth spending splurge. It was only a tenner, it is perfect for a snuggle with my fella when it is cold and raining. We put the fire and a good film on and cosy up under the IKEA blanket - Heaven.

Batman or Robin?

Definitely Batman, more specifically Christian Bale as Batman.

Worst ever job?

I’ve had a few, probably my paper round when I was 13 because it killed my back! Also, when I was a waitress at a restaurant when I was 15 and earned £3 an hour was pretty bad, I made £1 in tips for the whole 3 months I lasted.

If you were invisible for a day, what would you do first and why?

I think I would do something really annoying like pretend I was a ghost and wind up my friends, or go to the biggest non-believer and scare the hell out of them.

Circus or Cinema

Ideally neither as my short attention span would render all of these a waste of money. If I had to choose it would be Circus, as I have had a very bad experience at a cinema on a first date. :(

Best event at Sport Day?

Without a doubt the three legged race. I came first back in school with my friend and won a sticker; one of my proudest moments yet.

Worst record or song ever purchased?

Definitely ‘The Hamster Dance Song’ (on cassette) It went something like this; De di de di di di doh doh de di dee de doooh! In my defence, I was about 10.

Cheryl or Danni?

After watching her on Piers Morgan’s Life Stories, Dannii. But Cheryl for her wardrobe (if I’m allowed to pick both)

When did you last have a full on belly laugh?

Pretty much every time my daughter says anything, she is the funniest person I have ever met and only nine, I like to think she got her excellent wit from me of course.

What is your favourite thing about working in public relations?

All of it, I absolutely love seeing a release turned into coverage in a national newspaper. It has always been my dream job and I have worked on some amazing accounts and its a great feeling when the hard work pays off. And I always wanted to be able to say ‘sweetie sweetie pr, pr darling’ and now, I can!

Sprouts or Broccoli? (one word)

Both!



matt, design yeti, specialises in websites and creative work, likes eating cheese

Matt, Design Yeti

Ring: +44 (0)1452 348211

Email: matt@10yetis.co.uk

What is in your refrigerator?

Paneer and Cauliflower

What is your main motivation?

To learn new skills and be able to quote every episode of I'm Alan Partridge, word for word.

Tea or Coffee?

All of the above

Office Darts Skills: Matt is a relative unknown in the Yeti darts world, but it is assumed that the slowed-down nature of his existence will prove him a force to be reckoned with. His love for music mash-ups is unrelated to this player biog.


martin does all of the technical wizardry and things we don't understand

Email: martin@10yetis.co.uk

What is your favorite smell?

My favourite smell has to be the smell in the air just after its rained.

What musical instruments do you play?

I have a guitar but I wouldn’t say I could play. I wouldn’t mind learning other instruments too like the drums or maybe something more unusual like a didgeridoo.

Plane or boat?

Either really

Office Darts Skills: Martin is a confident and consistent player, he is always ready to dent opponent’s confidence with a giggle or quip at a wayward shot.

Hugo, Security and Front Of House Yeti

Ring: +44 (0)1452 348211

Email: hugo@10yetis.co.uk

What is your life motto?

Sniff it, lick it, hump it!

Favorite Office Activity?

Sniffing Matt's shoes, eating new stationery, licking Matt's shoes, chewing through the cables, chewing Matt's shoes, seeing what's in Fran 's bag, hiding Matt's shoes.

Tummy rub or ear stroking?

Tummy rub!

Office Darts Skills: Hugo can’t play darts! He lacks the opposability with regards to thumbs.
