The 3D Theory

This year is the year of 3D. It’s all over the place: movies, sporting events, dedicated weeks on Channel 4. It’s even crept into pub banter and ‘water cooler’ chat. “Seen that Avatar? It’s incredible to watch, but the story is pants!”
It’s quite clear that the gimmick of 3D is much stronger than the messages [...]

Aliens revolt against digital TV

Okay, so you’re probably wondering what on earth aliens find revolting about digital TV…?
Well, I was reading an article recently about SETI (the Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence) and their ongoing conquest to prove that we are not alone. Fascinating in itself, but what really grabbed my attention is the fact that they blamed digital television [...]

Invasion of the Body Snatchers…?

Well, it’s Friday, the worst day of the year is behind us and the first payday of the month is just around the corner. What better time to introduce our new, (probably not) regular feature: Lookalike Fridays?
No better time.
First up, who remembers Bodger and Badger? A children’s TV show about a man and a badger [...]

Sno-thing like a snowball fight!

Our teeth are chattering and we’re using cat litter to grit our driveways. What better way to celebrate this wonderful winter weather than with a giant Swamp snowball fight?!
‘Swamp Towers’ is actually set in a beautiful old listed house with a large extention and gorgeous gardens. We thought we’d take advantage of the snow-covered lawns.

Twitter, Jedward and gas: a look at the decade ahead

January: a time for new beginnings. A time for not letting a drop of alcohol touch our lips or so much as a sniff of chocolate reach our nostrils for at least the next four weeks. Unless it’s a really special occasion, such as a birthday, a wedding, a weekend or your next door neighbour’s [...]

Lots of love,

Having a bad hair day?

Look like a cat that’s been dragged through a hedge backwards? And not in that ‘I’m-a-super-cool-student’ way, but in that ‘I’m-the-love-child-of-Ken-Dodd-and-Amy-Winehouse-on-crystal-meth’ way?
Then help is at hand!
Recent research by the Department of Well Good Research, has shown that women are attracted to men who have no hair on the top of their head, but loads of [...]

Google Street View or Footpath View?

Whilst on holiday this summer, having a brisk (and rather windswept) coastal cliff top walk in Dorset, I was surprised to see a weird looking tricycle appear on the horizon. Imagine my surprise (and I have to admit, excitement) when I realised it was ‘the Google dude’ on a technology laden push bike.
Naturally (and like [...]

The Rubix Cubewich: brain food with a difference

If you’ve ever wished you could combine your love of Geometry with your love of food (and, let’s face it, who hasn’t) your days of waiting are finally over!
The Rubix Cubewich combines the exhilarating mathematical thrill of the Rubik’s Cube with the taste sensation that is cheddar cheese and spam in some toasted white bread.

“It’s [...]

Bands of the Week

The music has flowed through the agency and exclamations such as “Brilliant!”, “I love that song!” and “Turn down that volume!”, have been heard throughout the office.
Once more the votes has been counted and I have the pleasure of presenting the selected artists for the last week:
23/ 03/ 2009 Ladyhawke – Ladyhawke

Ladyhawke secured her nomination [...]
