Source: Yet another earworm. Also a long-time feature on my Utopian Vibes Only Spotify playlist. I don’t know why, maybe it’s the pared-down graphics/colours of this vid or just….something…. but I’d love to see a collaboration between Joseph and OK Go. (Don’t ask me, I’m not in charge of what my brain comes up with).
Waiting for the world to turn
BIG FAT #TRIGGER WARNING It’s been a while since I updated here with a public post and, while it’s reasonable to restrict access to certain parts of my life, thoughts and feelings, sometimes you just gotta post some stuff out there. This is my personal blog but I don’t make it difficult to find from […]
Song of the day: Murray Head ‘One Night in Bangkok
Source: I’ve just got back from 2 delightful weeks in Whitby (I did pre-order the heatwave. You’re welcome). All fortnight I’ve had ‘Two weeks in Whitby and the world’s your scampi. I can feel the Abbey looming over me’ stuck in my head.

Song of the day: Nikki Lane ‘Born Tough’
Source: Another one on my ‘All the pissed off ladies’ playlist Does what it says on the tin, for today at least 🤷♀️
Don’t bottle it
2018 was a bit of a weird one. G and I had just got married, I was invited to a thing in Europe off the back of my own hard-won experience and knowledge, I got named as one of the next SmallBiz100 cohort and I was offered a digital transformation project that had nothing to […]
Song of the (International Womens) Day: The Highwomen ‘Redesigning Women’
Source: The first time I heard this song I fell a little bit apart. Then I listened to the rest of the album and fell apart a little bit more. I’d probably had a few but the point(s) stand. Anyway, today I (finally) settled on a name and some branding for my new venture. It’s […]
Welcome to Funland
“We have a fantastic opportunity right now to use the inevitable move towards remote-first and flexible working to rebuild and regenerate some of our towns.Places like Southport, for one example, where there are already great transport links, beautiful parks, lakes and community spaces and amazing architecture could be rediscovered and reinvented to work for modern […]
