Beeker’s done a far better representation of last night than I. I’ll go back to nonsense about tea and swimming.

Another reason all that training was worth it. Did all 195 steps, not even out of breath. Only thing I had time for last night, I just wanted to feel that overwhelming rush of humanity you only get in London (if you live in England). By the way, it’s so much milder down there. People…

So I did a flying visit to London to see John Steel’s talk on pitching. While I didn’t have time to catch up with some people while I was down there, I was hoping to bump into some familiar faces at the event. Carol was one, but she couldn’t make it. So for her and…

This article from The Independent discusses the UK’s increasing love for fine foods and throws up some interesting stuff: The growth of  retailer premium private label food ALONGSIDE organic and fairtrade maybe shows how much ethical buying is status as much as morality.

If you want to get into the mindset of the people, this is a good start. First off, Page 3. Today it’s Keeley. It doesn’t stop…

Thanks to the newspaper project, naturally I’ve been thinking about what really matters to people and how to include them in politics, espescially the young and by happy coincidence I found this at PSFK. Myspace US is launching a competition called where members post a 60 second film of their views on the state of…

I had a conversation on the phone last night with an old friend. It doesn’t matter what it was about, but it reminded me that when you get older, friends become like family. I don’t mean in the surrogate family sense – you know young people who have all moved away to different cities – …
