As Movember comes to a close Mo-bro's all around the globe are preparing to say goodbye to their nose neighbours.

Thank you to all who have donated and it's not too late if you haven't done so yet just click here to visit my-mospace. Right, it is almost time to shave, goodnight.

Jodie Philo @ Accessorize

Since graduating from Loughborough University with a 1st class degree Jodie has been working at Accessorize as a designer. Despite it still being Movember and therefore far too early to begin thinking about Rudolf, Comet, Vincent, Prancer, Dancer & co. Jodie and her team have started a Christmas wish list...


p.s. Jodie is also one of the nicest people you could ever actually meet...although she does have one major weakness which is that she has never been able to win at the exciting popomatic race game, Frustration. http://www.accessorize.com/page/christmaswishlist

All you need is love

The Big March

Anti-bullying week. Act collectively and let's reduce the amount of children that lie in bed at night scared to go to school the next day. Bullying steals people's ability to live, learn and love.

I blame coco

'I'm youth, I'm joy, I'm a little bird that has broken out of the egg'
Sir J.M.Barrie

























Constant - I Blame Coco. Her album is out. Stumbled across Coco Sumner's music a while back and finally saw her live last week at The Bodega. Good times. She's got a bit about her. I like that. She's stolen my ears this week.

happy friday

'Praising what is lost makes the remembrance dear'

Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.'

Change

'It may be hard for an egg to turn into a bird: it would be a jolly sight harder for it to learn to fly while remaining an egg. We are like eggs at present. And you cannot go on indefinitely being just an ordinary, decent egg. We must be hatched or go bad.'
C S Lewis
