TOP2BOTTOM

So it's time for the annual holiday and this year it's going to be a special one! I've decided for some reason to challenge my self by attempting the epic cycle trip from John O'Groats (the most North-Easterly point of Scotland) to Land's End (the most South-westerly point of England). It's a 1000 mile bike ride the full length of the UK, TOP 2 BOTTOM! We will be attempting the trip in 9 days, and it's all in the name of Charity.

Me and 2 other friends will be embraking on the trip and hoping to raise money along the way for Neurosurgical Research. The reason being that my Sister Debbie Green passed away 5 years ago now at the age of 22, due to a bloogclot in her brain. She was kept in intensive care at the Leeds Hospital in the Neuro Ward. The money raised will be going towards better and advancing their equiptment.
If you'd like to sponser us feel free to visit our donation webpage:

We've also set up a blog that will document our trip down the UK, we'll be uploading pictures and general crack straight from our iPhones along the way. (battery permitting). Visit the blog here:

So once we finish the trip at Lands End, a beer or 2 will be had and then we will head back up the south west coast 30 miles to meet the rest of our pals who will have set up camp in Newquay for the boardmasters festival. Here I will spend 5 days in the Surf in the various bays around newquay! NICE!

EMBRACE FOR KIDS





Back in December I gave my Dad an embrace for Christmas. And when all the family gathered at his house for some festive fun I noticed my niece sat playing on the embrace, using the small table as a bench and the larger one as a desk. Right then I knew it would make a great photo, so when my niece was visiting the studio for the day I thought I'd get some quick snaps. Thanks for the modeling holly :).

HEALS OF LONDON

I made a quick trip to the capital this week to visit New Designers. The show was good as always but as it was about 39 degrees in the BDC I had to get out and go for a walk! This gave me the chance to grab a frappe latte and visit some of the big design stores! Whilst walking around Heals I noticed something familiar!

While the above pictures are cool, the best pic was of the wallstores hung next to an Eames 'Hang it all' coat rack. But for some reason the iPhone decided to save the image as a big black square. I suppose apple can't do everything right ;)
