Spooning. The art of a horizontal cuddle. Spooning is not limited to two people. Spoon trains are common whereby a group of people cuddle each other in a line. Spooning also is not limited by gender, size, shape or age. Parents can spoon children, friends can spoon friends, children can spoon their grandparents and so forth.… Continue reading The Rules of Spooning

Just Another Football Club
Since November 2010 I’ve had an idea brewing in my head. Often obsessing and sometimes losing sleep over it, this summer I finally got my act together and pitched it to Unltd (a fund for social entrepreneurs) for some start-up cash but mostly for something to kick me into action. So (drumroll please) this is… Continue reading Just Another Football Club
London by Bus
This is the kind of video I wish I made. Beautiful, isn’t it? It certainly would have given me something to do in the 10 + hours a week I spend commuting by bus.
Cesc! Come back!
Ok. He’s gone. And Arsenal are in trouble with a shocking start to this year’s premier league. Oh Cesc. You are sorely missed. I spotted these amazing pics in the Guardian, courtesy of photomontage. Just brilliant.

Then I received a broadcast that Hackney would be next. What did this mean? It means that on day 3 of the London… Continue reading Endless Sirens
The Joy of Sugru
This is the newest piece of Do The Green Thing content and I must say, it’s pretty magical. The film was put together by lovely Liv and it’s the story of bringing things back to life when you fix them. It’s also a delightful little advert for Sugru. If you’ve never heard of Sugru, please… Continue reading The Joy of Sugru

For the past year, Charlie has been working on a project with A New Direction’s Biggest Learning Opportunity on Earth programme (Biglop), which brings together artists and cultural organisations with schools across London to explore… Continue reading London 2012
Plastic Fashion? No thanks.
For some strange reason, at this moment in time, littering the pages of many glossy magazines is plastic. Plastic fashion. I do love fashion. And I do love a good read through of a glossy magazine. But I don’t love plastic fashion. “Plastic, c’est fantastic“, “plastic is so S/S ’11“. It’s really not. Maybe it’s… Continue reading Plastic Fashion? No thanks.
