Winter finished in Australia a couple of weeks ago.Apparently it`s still warm in most places, although Sydney can go down to about 50 degrees Fahrenheit.It reminded me of an Australian I used to work with, at a swimming pool. He told me one day that they had Xmas in July parties as that was the coldest part of their year. As a joke we organised a Xmas in July party at the leisure complex...which u....

I think it`s always handy to have some fun facts up your sleeve to wow everyone or even win a bet! So here are some to keep you going. Did you know watermelons are actually berries...yes they are! If you are on a double or nothing with that bet, you should be aware that croissants are from Austria and not France despite their name. Hungry for more?..of course you are..there are 20,000 species of b....

Business partnerships across two or more different types of business can be very useful so long as they are a win/win situation and  are appropriate. For example The Body Shop is not going to suddenly team up with a business that endorses product testing on animals, but it may well do with one that has solid `Green` credentials. When setting up or even proposing a new partnership it is a goo....

Brighton has the widest range of entertainments of any place in Sussex. The options are enough to confuse even the best organisers looking to get value for money and the best length of activity time for their group.
Take a typical hen party group visiting Brighton for the first time. Accommodation and evening activities are most likely already accounted for, but the daytime is....

Unless you watched the TV programme, Suits, you probably did not know who Meghan Markle was until she was linked to Prince Harry.
In May 2018 she is set to become the year`s most famous woman when she marries the country`s fifth in line to the throne. A mixed marriage, divorcee, American actress marrying the British Prince is kind of a perfect symbol for the diversity of this country and ....

The problem with New Year`s Resolutions is I think the whole idea comes too early in the Year! Don`t worry..I do understand the whole concept of committing to life changing ideas right at the beginning of a year. Let`s face it though, for those that have been out on New Year`s Eve the likelihood of making any sensible decisions the next day is unlikely to be too high! "I`ll never drink again." may....

You don`t have to be a fan of Strictly Come Dancing, but when one of the couples who were hot favourites to make at least the final if not to win the whole competition got knocked out at the half way stage this weekend, it left me wandering about the judging system for not only the show, but also the decision making process of individuals and professional companies for their entertainment ....

In my opinion Britain`s adoption of Halloween as ` a thing` has slightly damaged the reputation of Bonfire Night as the best event of Autumn. It`s fine to have lots to look forward to, but just sneaking in the week before is a little rude. After all, Guy Fawkes and his co-conspirators had taken some time to plan the potential blowing up of the Houses of Parliament. Halloween has been steal....

With the recent collapse of Monarch airlines and the stranding of approx 110 000 people abroad, the question of when is the best time to book will inevitably arise. Monarch had been in business for 50 years before going into administration. There had been strong rumours of its imminent demise a year ago, but it secured funding and another licence. Almost 5.5 Million people trusted it enoug....

When I  was employed (rather than self-employed) I attended some good,bad and indifferent teambuilding sessions. Now I organise teambuilding treasure hunts I try and ensure to include what makes for the best outcomes. For example, a number of large company`s are set up in a way that secretary`s don`t know the finance team by sight or a Manager doesn`t know what their supervisor enjoys doing a....
