The need for speed.
The Ferrari F1 team needed a faster pit crew. They took advantage of the British government's 'Work for your Dole' scheme and employed some youngsters from a local council estate. This was because they'd seen a documentary on how unemployed youths from these estates could remove a set of wheels in less than 6 seconds without proper […]
Read MoreIf life gives you lemons, make lemon tea!
I gave up coffee a couple of years ago. I don't miss it, but I do sometimes find that I run out of things I want to drink. When I was a coffee drinker, there was never any such thing as too many coffees (that was part of the problem) so whatever was going on, […]

A beautiful princess lived in a lovely house in the woods, St John's Wood perhaps. She was as bright and hard working as she was attractive. One day, a handsome prince came along. He fell hopelessly in love with the princess and asked her to marry him. She said no. Instead, she spent her life […]

The rise of the internet and social media has enhanced many people’s lives, including mine. I love being able to reach a wider audience, to make connections I couldn't possibly have made before and to keep in touch with a valuable circle of contacts and friends alike. Of course, like everything, it has it's pros […]
Read MoreWhere there’s a Will, there’s not always a way
