Past winners of this rather dubious accolade include such cellulite-free ‘personalities’ as Felicity Kendal, Anneka Rice and (unbelievably) Su Pollard. Class! Of course in recent years PC has dictated that the competition awards men too, so I’m in good company with the likes of Russell Watson, Robbie Williams and Richard Fairbrass (neither of us [...]
I’m not too ashamed (yet) to admit that I’ve always had a bit of a penchant for Apple goodies. My first mac was a Classic II circa ‘86, and it’s fair to say I’ve always been a fan of the way the Mac operates (particularly since OS X). So you’ll not be surprised to learn [...]
A few days ago, I received a polite email from Companies House, informing us that our emails were not complying with section 82 of the Companies Act 2006.

When it comes to business, yes. Sadly though it seems it’s an inverse relationship, and the larger the company, the poorer the service. Take BT for example…

Yesterday, the 27th of January 2010, a man who is a bold IT visionary stood up in front of the world’s press in San Francisco (in his somewhat unfashionable turtleneck jumper and blue jeans) and released what he claimed was a “revolutionary new product”.
At the same time on this side of the Atlantic, a slightly [...]
What are these?
OSS recently asked South˚ to work on creating a set of icons that would denote their business areas and fit in with the style previous icons already in place and compliment the brand.
What do they denote?
These icons try to encompass these complex areas of the business without being too specific. In order the [...]
Will Bernard grow this year?

2009 has been filed away under ‘no growth’ the tinsel has been put away and the tree has gone for recycling. Well no,……… this year we bought a ‘growing Christmas tree’ you know one with roots which is now in a tub in the garden, my daughter named it [...]
