Creativity-Where Does it Come From?

Posted on January 21, 2012

I read two posts from fellow Bloggers this week that have stuck in my head since, one was written by Nick Mabey on his Create Waves website and was titled "Playing Devils Advocate" whilst the other was written by Craig Killick and carried the rather controversial title "Why Mission Statements are Wank." Whilst the titles of these two blogs don't immediately link together, both statements are related to what actually makes people creative and how ...

An Away Day at Watford FC

Posted on January 17, 2012

George and I went to Watford to watch Reading play on Saturday, it was my first away day game for many years and a nostalgia trip as to how football used to be before the stadiums were upgraded and sanitized in to modern arenas fit for all kinds of sports and pop concerts.

I couldn't resist it, they were so keen for my ongoing business that they reduced my monthly tariff from £35.00 to £30.00, how could I possibly refuse? Jesus, it was only a couple of years back that I was paying over a hundred pounds a month for a mobile and it was ...

The All New Blog Page

Posted on January 10, 2012

Well this it folks, I now have an independent blog page, something I must take the opportunity of thanking Craig Killick for, a true mate is someone who sets you up a website for nothing except a couple of beers the next time I see him. So, the big question is this, why do I need an independent web/blog page?  Is Blogger not good enough for me anymore?  Well it is and it isn't, having my own domain with a website tailored to my needs makes it ...
