Just lately a few people have asked me ‘What do you actually do?’ or ‘How do you make a living?’ and those are very fair questions, as at the moment there is nothing on the website that gives any indication!

We’re currently looking for another house to rent in Frome, as our landlords have decided to sell up. It’s not nice having to face the prospect of packing up when you’re happily settled somewhere, but the situation isn’t exactly helped by the attitude of many letting agencies when they ask about your personal circumstances.

My observant coworking friend Lee Cottier pointed out the other day that I have now sent out more than 1000 tweets. I wasn’t keeping count, so the total was a surprise. It would be good if you could attach a tweetometer to the side of your computer and watch the tweets roll up, [...]

I’m pleased to say my advice to myself worked and I was able to get stuck into my new webpage on how to start your own Jelly. It’s now published apart from some pictures I’m waiting for A to put on as we have a glitch with the site that means pictures have to [...]

Today I need to take some of my own advice, as outlined in my book about working from home in the chapter on productivity, to decide what to work on first. There are so many things I’d like to get done, preferably now, straightaway, this minute, that it’s hard to plump for one and [...]
