A looming deadline.

If anyone says this blog then I'm going home.

I'm no designer, but what the hey: Beethoven's 6th Symphony in F, sunsets, the Malvern Hills, the Victoria & Albert Museum, George Orwell, John Milton and anything with well played guitar (especially Richard Thompson playing Vincent Black Lightning on youtube).

Interviewing graphic designers - and, uh - walking my dog.

Look, just ask that Roger Gould man* - he'll tell you (just like me) that it's a looming deadline.
* Pip will know who he is.

* Sorry, I mean Pippa (I blame it on the stuff he - Roger Gould - puts in his pipe).

I see what you're doing there...

The great outdoors (close to home being the top of Arthurs Seat).

OK Ben, that's enough about Roger Gould (a Prince among men, although he doesn't have a blog - yet).
But about that Innocent book - it's about time you passed it on.

Cheese. We all know that strange dreams follow a late night cheesy snack. Just have a pen and paper by the bed and note the randomness that follows. There's sure to be a gem in there sooner or later. Best to leave the crackers out...

You know those numbered queue tickets you get at the deli counter sometimes? Well one of those did it for me last week.
