Eating frogs and Darwinian walking at How to Work from Home
1210 months ago
Those were just two of the tips shared by the home workers who came along to my first meet-up at Central last week! In the relaxing surroundings of the downstairs room, a home from home with its colourful cushions and rugs, there was much laughter and relief at how many challenges and thoughts we [...]

Today is National Work from Home Day and I hope you’re all savouring the freedom and delights that home working allows! What perfect timing to announce some exciting new plans I have for sharing home working information in a different way:
I’ve got together with the lovely people at Central, the [...]
Thank you!

Before launching into today’s post, I just want to say a heartfelt thank you for the amazing response to my recent message about The BIG Jelly. When I told Fay, one of the other organisers, that I was blogging about it, she said, ‘Excellent, we’ll cover the UK by teatime!’ but so many of you RTed [...]
Please can you lovely home workers help me spread the word about The BIG Jelly?
511 year ago
The BIG Jelly is now only two months away, on Friday 25 March, and it’s high time I told you what’s happening.
The BIG Jelly was the idea of Jan Minihane, my Jelly friend and the founder of Shropshire Jelly, who was so thrilled at the collaborations that came out of her local Jellys that she [...]
When you want to get out of the home office more
141 year ago
At the start of the year many of us make resolutions to get out and meet more people – easy to say, and easy to book for some events, but then the doubts might start kicking in.
Experience of wearing myself out right up to the last minute with the ‘shall I go, shall I cancel?’ question – and then [...]
The clouds clear for home workers
181 year ago
Continuing the habit of writing on Thursdays about the things I’m thankful for, today the subject is technology, which is the reason so many of us can do what we do from home.
Technology can cut us off from other people, if that’s the way we choose to use it, but it can also connect us in ways [...]

in Events for home workers
Last week I mentioned a public speaking event being run by Triumphant Events, whose talks and workshops I’ve gained a huge amount of both information and inspiration from.
Today I thought you’d like to hear about a mini retreat being held in London next week by my friend and mentor Nick Williams, [...]

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.

Just a quick announcement of the next Jelly in Frome. It’s been a while due to all my recent upheavals, but finally I’ve got it together for Wednesday 19 May, from 10 am to 4 pm. We’ll be at The Old Church School again, thanks to our ultra-supportive host Gavin Eddy.
I’m looking forward to [...]
For first-time Jellyers
22 years ago
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 imagine how I [...]

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:

I’m really excited to have another venue for Jelly, the beautiful and quirky Glove Factory Studios at Holt near Bradford-on-Avon. They are described as a contemporary renovation of an industrial heritage building and have to be experienced – the website has some lovely pictures, but you have to [...]

Just do one thing at a time!

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 go on the server first…or something. [...]
Jelly on ice
12 years ago
A and I crunched carefully down the road yesterday to Jelly at The Old Church School and were joined by two other people who live locally and were able to walk in. Others were stranded by the ice and couldn’t make it.
Having spent all the previous day at home, with not even a short walk, it made [...]
