Newsflash – page about Jelly
I’ve just added a new page about Jelly that includes a couple of videos from the first Frome Jelly in November. New pages are listed under Tips on the menu bar and also in the right-hand column under my tweets.

Workhub & coworking news
The Workhubs Conference in June was a wonderful day spent listening to people from all over the UK who are committed to providing coworking space for home workers and freelancers, sometimes in difficult financial circumstances.

This time last week I was speaking on the workhubs user panel at the Workhubs Conference at BT Centre in London – quite a change from my usual Tuesday of home working! The conference launched the new report on workhubs written by the Workhubs Network (run by Tim Dwelly, whom I know from my Cornwall [...]

Yes, you did read that right, despite Dolly Parton’s chirpings! It’s the title of the latest book by Emma Jones, the founder of Enterprise Nation, the online resource for setting up and growing a home business.

Today was Jelly day once again at The Old Church School in Frome, and having discovered Jelly was happening at the same time in both Cardiff and Coalport, I racked my brains for a way of connecting us all. It was A who came up with the brilliant idea of having a #jellymoment on Twitter [...]

I wrote recently in Unexpected Pleasures about how wonderful it is when something good happens that you haven’t had to work or push for. It’s a salutary reminder that life doesn’t have to be a struggle! I also love it when out of the blue an answer arrives to a question you have been puzzling [...]

You may have read my posts banging on about how wonderful coworking and Jelly are, and wondered what on earth actually happens there, and what you could take along to do. I know I was a bit puzzled before my first Jelly in Bath, because I work alone in my home office, and I couldn’t [...]

It’s been a busy week, what with making ourselves at home in the new house and firing up the brain cells, which have got rather too used to operating on Spanish time. Fortunately we got broadband in time for me to hear through Twitter – where I seem to hear all the best stuff – [...]

It’s unlikely I’ll be posting here until I’ve moved into my new home office, so apologies in advance for the disruption to normal home working service. In the meantime you might like to visit a few of my online friends to fill the gap: San Sharma is the friendly host of #watercoolermoment every weekday at [...]

A and I have noticed before that it’s amazing what can happen when you let go of trying hard, and go off and do something else entirely. I’ve been doing a lot of work lately on content for the site and articles for other websites and blogs. But with the move coming up next week, [...]
