While we have no complaints about our place of work (it is lovely inside and in a great location) it is a long way from being Cambridge's most beautiful building when viewed from the outside.
Our office is the entire ground floor.
With this in mind we are going to decorate the windows and doors of our office to this design concept:
The questions in the windows are placeholders.
What we would like your help with is thinking up eight really interesting and fun questions to put in our windows. These questions don't need to be currently answered by True Knowledge.
Our Office is right by Cambridge's central train station so questions that someone who just got off a train in a new city might be likely to ask may be a good starting point for thinking up some good ones.
Eight questions will be chosen and displayed in our windows on vinyl frosting for everyone passing throught Hills Road, Cambridge to see.
If you suggest a question that we end up using we'll send you a True Knowledge branded T-Shirt in a colour and size of your choice (provided we have it in stock).
Please leave comments on this blog post with as many suggestions as you can think of. Please use your True Knowledge username as your commenter name so we can get in touch to send you your free T-Shirt if we use one of your questions - if you don't yet have a true Knowledge account you can sign-up here.
