I thought Mr Paul Norman was looking a little rough around the edges this morning at [Estates Gazette](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Estates_Gazette "Estates Gazette")‘s busting metropolitan HQ. I didn’t figure out why until I got around to catching up with [his excellent Olympics blog](http://www.estatesgazette.com/blogs/olympics/2010/11/this-blog-picks-up-award.html) on my iPad.
Last night Paul bagged the multimedia journalist of the year award from the [IPB](http://www.ibp.org.uk/index.asp), largely for his work on that blog.
As I mentioned to Paul, his is one of a handful of our blogs I cite when training or advising people as an excellent example of beat blogging. It’s great to see his skill recognised by people in his niche, too.
What a great end to the week.
