SEX & VIOLENCE
I missed this in the news a few months back, but a friend in the pub told me on Friday that there'd been a right old storm in a teacup in America over the latest release of the ever-controversial computer game, Grand Theft Auto. Apparently, the naughty programmers had added a subliminal sex scene...

All About T
I couldn't sleep last night. I approached a big name in the States last week about buying a non-exclusive license to market his DVD set in the UK, and yesterday I received a firm offer from him. It's more than I wanted to pay (or even have!) but he's giving me more than I expected, too. It's very...

I CAN CONTROL STREETLIGHTS WITH MY MIND!!!
Back in the late 1980s and early 1990s I had a beautiful apartment in Blackheath, south east London. It was on the top floor and in part of the roof space of a lovely old house that had been converted into five apartments. The house itself was originally built in 1876 by Mr Freen of Peak Freen...

A New Office, White Cattle & Big Lapels
The office move is officially completed, and I'm now holed up in what was my bedroom from age 0 - 21. I've moved full circle, and it feels great! Mum is creeping around the house today, as this is the first time I've actually sat and done ay serious work here. I keep telling her to use the house as...

I FELT OUR BABY KICKING FOR THE FIRST TIME LAST NIGHT!!
T has been feeling the little kicks inside for some weeks now. Someone here said for her, it felt like little butterflies crossing her stomach. Well, last night s/he was having an active little time of it, as T relaxed before heading off for an early night. And, having my hand in the right place at...

Is Water Evolving?
I woke up two days ago with this very thought in my head. Where it came from, I have no idea. But I've been wondering about it ever since. I mean, everything evolves, right? From a tiny ant to the entire planet - nothing is identical to the way it was a few hundred thousand years ago, or even a...

Two Terrible Interviews
I've started coaching my guinea pigs as part of my coaching accreditation course and, in a conversation I had today, my coachee spoke of his fears around job interviews. Not uncommon, I'm sure. And it took me right back to the early days of the random collection of jobs, positions and businesses I...

MY SHAMPOO BOTTLE IS POSSESSED - AND OTHER TALES
I mentioned the charity fund-raising drive yesterday - I need £5,000 in the next seven days in order to buy a second hand truck and pay for it to be shipped to my friend's charity in Uganda. Already, a handful of you have contacted me to express and interest in donating some of your hard-earned...
