It was announced recently that Boris Johnson is pledging to launch a £35m low-cost loan scheme to help small businesses in London, if he is re-elected in May. The money is set to come from the £70m allocated in last month’s budget to help boost ailing economic growth and boost capital development. The loans could…
The One That Got Away
As a Portuguese Water Dog I’m bred to help the fisherman in Portugal pull their nets onto their fishing boats, however living in Windsor and working in Richmond (to be honest i have no idea how i arrived in either of these places) i feel a little lost. I cannot even see the sea from…
The rise of video conferencing |

New House
We finally moved to the new house, further away from London, seeking the quiet life. In the previous place it sounded like we were living just across the road from the police station. Sirens were on all the time, morning, afternoon, night, you name it! This is not the main reason why we moved though,…

Whilst he may have had other things to do whilst there, Boris’ press conference probably lasted…
Is B2B Marketing boring?
Is B2B Marketing boring? In short, our answer is no! Well, we don’t think so anyway. We aren’t afraid to challenge the norm and be heard in a flooded market, using interesting and creative methods. Our 2022/2023 campaign, ‘More Sense than Money,’ is one example. The main character was Cecil Goldwell, old school and loathed…
Mini-honeymoon in a Finnish spa

Does there have to be a green tax on everything?
That’s how it seems sometimes. If I want to exercise my right as a purchaser and buy the green/ethical/morally upright option, I have to pay extra. Someone somewhere is taxing me for my beliefs. Maybe I’m being too sensitive about this. After all, if I go into my local supermarket, I’m presented with normal…
