The UK is neglecting its leadership pipeline - New research has found that many of the UK’s young leaders are being overlooked. A survey of 1,200 people by international leadership development organisation Common Purpose has found that less that half of people receive leadership development before the age of 25. This is despite the fact that over half of respondents said they had wanted leadership development at a younger age. Read more…
I’ve decided to drop a few pounds this year and look at a diet that I could easily manage with my busy life. I looked at a few but finally decided on the Weight Watchers at home plan as my wife thought it was ace.
So I got on the website, signed up and awaited my delivery of diet goodies to get me going…By the time the pack arrived I was already into the third day of my diet and feeling pretty hungry, missing all the things that made me fat in the first place, namely Pizza. Read more…
This year’s instalment of shite holidays from The Sun arrived in the post this morning. What joy! If anyone reading this thinks it will actually happen forget it, it won’t.
I got stitched up last year by one of the parks and I’m still seething about it. I saw the deal in the paper, saved the tokens up and arranged for eight of my mates to go down to one of the parks near Bournemouth for 2 nights in a mobile home.
This is something that’s been bothering me for some time. Male grooming…Is it ok and if so - to what extent.
Personally, I use face moisturising cream after I’ve had a shave to calm the skin down a bit but that’s about it. These days though, there is a wide range of products for blokes that are available all over the place and loads of my friends and aquaintances now have “beauty regimes”.
One guy I know wears foundation every time he goes out, another shaves his chest and another…..his balls. All use moisturiser.
My dad still uses the good old bar of soap and says any man that uses anything else is a “big jess”. I’m interested to know what people think. So, has society moved on a notch? Is it now ok to use products like this and admit it?? Or does that make you “a big jess”….
I saw Dizzy Rascal on newsnight commenting on Obama’s win! Hillarious. It’s been a hell of a week for the Beeb. I mean, what on earth is Dizzee doing commenting on American Politics?
In Dizzee’s words “Ee won it cos of Hip Hop…Hip Hop rulez da world man innit…He reached out to da kids wiv Hip Hop and dat is why dey voted innit. Hip Hop rules da world”
You should have seen paxman’s face. Classic. It is quite possible the best newsnight ever.
I’ve seen and commented on this post by Chris and made my thoughts clear that it should be Tea bag, then hot water, then milk. I don’t want to get into that argument anymore but I we do have another problem.
I’ve discovered that actually, I can’t make tea another way than my own - I’ve tried and failed every time. Apart from disagreeing with him on how it’s made I have no problem making his tea the way he likes it, but I can’t do it? Does anyone else have this problem?
The same is true when others make my tea, it’s just not quite right. Nearly there sometimes, but never perfect.
I was just discussing this with Lisa in my office and we think it’s worth sharing. The importance of where your desk is at at work. Now there are lots of things to take into consideration. Get a good corner plot and no-one can see your screen leaving you free for facebook, games etc etc.
Get a desk out in the open and your screwed, never truly safe from the prying eyes of your beloved collegues…
