  • It’s not particularly well designed but I like this poster. I like the way it provokes me and the way George Galloway isn’t afraid to say what he thinks (although I don’t agree with much of it), whatever the outcome. Paul Colman got me thinking about this with a comment in my ‘I can’t spell’…

  • This blogging planner has the best blog name of them all. Along with the name, I’m a wee bit jealous of anyone who’s close enough to London  to make a Russell Davies coffee morning.

  • I’ve spent a lot of time in train stations this month. It’s made me wonder why train companies don’t work harder at making this part of the experience better for their customers, since it’s the beginning and end of their journey. Two observations have revealed themselves. 1. It’s annoying when you’re desperate for the loo…

  • I really liked the new Mini when it was re-launched with it’s cheeky, adventurous personality. Driving past this garage last week reminded me what changed my mind. I don’t like BMW. It’s conservative, boring and obvious. They may be good cars, but not for me. So as soon as I discovered that Minis were actually…

  • Rob at the The Ad- Pit shares my weakness for ‘so bad they’re good icons’ like the Hoff. He’s posted has posted a classic ad just for me, not to mention some useful shaving tips. Enjoy.
