An amazing insite watching the European Space Agency teams emotion at this weeks successful landing. To remotely land a craft, that has been travelling with it’s carrier ship for 10 years on a comet with little to no atmosphere is an incredible achievement and one to be celebrated. Let’s not forget, on the way it’s already performed two asteroid flyby […]
Bank of England Selfie – Golden Graham/Graemes
When you have the best speaker around and a selfie stick, it would be wrong to miss the opportunity. Herefordshire hosted the Regional Agent for the Bank of England with dinner last night and breakfast this morning. Graeme was on great form again – thankfully no need to field any questions on sporans or haggis with Scotland saying No. (Braveheart […]
Naked Hogster – living in hope…
Junior hogster arrived on the lawn cold, wet and frankly a bit (un) fed up. Warming on a bottle brought life back into the little body and now egg and cat food are going down well. I think being held on his back when not eating and being threatened with the milk syringe may have had something to do with […]
Over 1 million visitors to The Hive in Worcester – libraries are vital but let’s be creative about design and function
Great to see the report on visitor numbers from the Hive in Worcester. The ambition was clear – to make it somewhere that is relevant to people today / to make it somewhere that people actually want to spend time. With so much on offer now both on and offline the traditional library is seen as a dinosaur. Somewhere people used […]

If you’re waiting for a simple instruction. Here it is: CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. While most of us when working from home have routers that will […]

The best designers of signs and boards in Herefordshire… well yes actually
Of course it makes it easy when you have clients that are the best in their field. IE Developments have been recognised with many awards. The quality of the build and specification of their properties is something that every construction company should aspire to. If you want to see the highest quality build and low energy consumption anywhere in the […]
From TIme – Aaron Sorkin on Philip Seymour Hoffman and heroin – let’s hope he’s right.
Phil Hoffman and I had two things in common. We were both fathers of young children, and we were both recovering drug addicts. Of course I’d known Phil’s work for a long time — since his remarkably perfect film debut as a privileged, cowardly prep-school kid in Scent of a Woman — but I’d never met him until the first table […]
Merry Christmas from the naked creative!
Following on from the naked creative Christmas Party this week we thought it was only fair to share with everyone the video made after the meal but before it all got out-of-hand. Sadly, the footage with accounts department goose-stepping across the roof had to be cut as we couldn’t allow the HSE to see it. We hope you enjoy the […]
