Electric Cars – Shiny and Futuristic or Just Boring?

14th April 2016

Remember all those things we used to be promised would be around in the future – jet backpacks, three course meals in the form of little pills, anti-gravity hover boards, an explanation for the popularity of James Corden – which we’re still impatiently waiting for? Shiny, science fiction futuristic things that would make our lives […]

Food Trends – dos and don’ts

22nd March 2016

Food Trends Do you remember when food used to be simple? Me neither, it’s been that long.

Salvaging a corporate reputation

24th November 2015

It’s probably fair to say that the general perception of large organisations in general – the banks, big business, the government itself – took a severe battering amidst the financial meltdown of 2007/8 and has yet to recover. Ever since the crash, an event during which the very banks with whom we entrusted our money had […]
