So here I am again about to cut my eye out with a spoon. Every day I get a little bit more behind and then a little sadder. Sorry, I’ll make this quick. I am not crying into my milkshake or anything like that, it is just a kick in the teeth, my teeth and […]
What Do You Wish Other People Knew About #Trello?
The best part about Trello is how it is a blank canvas and you can do what you want, it took us a while to appreciate that, so with this post and the workshops we run in our coworking space we are out to help people “find their Trello voice.”
I Am So Angry
I am so £ucking angry, except I am not. Let me rephrase that, I am aware of trigger points. No that is not what I mean either. So the above few lines are a bit like my head is sometimes and the impression I give to people, particularly the people who are closest and I […]
Falling Towards Poland – Part One
It was spring 2004 and yet again I was standing at a urinal in the Hamilton Hall in Liverpool Street Station in London pissing out another 10 rounds of shit beer with a chaser of vodka and Redbull. Everything was too much or not enough, I was more lost than a something in a something. The […]

You can listen to Darren’s podcast instructions here. Being a Freelancer, a ‘hired gun, an independent economic agent […]
Take It To The Mat And Pull The Trigger
Sorry to keep you. So there I was dicking around about which pearl of my infinite wisdom to share with you today. Sorry to keep you. I had a lot on, like checking every blog about blogging on the planet to be sure I was doing it right. Then I had to check a page […]

Why I Don’t Blog Every Day
I just don’t know what to wear! So far I have walked around my room, made some breakfast, read ten things and then played about in a couple of other apps and now I am here. I have just got #Babybernie to superglue me to the table and here we go! Hell’s Teeth Batman All I […]
Keep Going: Building Daily Habits & Scrum

I think I am ok now…. and other bits
At a quick glance I could seem much more exciting than I really am, the last few weeks have been zooming to Lisbon for the European Coworking conference where I stayed in the Copass Camp with 30 other ‘coworkers’ from the Copass community. Then back to London where I am part of the team delivering […]
Just another 30 day blog challenge… #29
Racing home to pick up #babybernie – I noticed the date today and was thinking how much has changed in the last 12 months. I have been ambling around listening to “Lola’s theme” by the Shapeshifters for nearly a decade (hells teeth – that long!) The key line for me is “I’m a different […]
Just another 30 day blog challenge… #28
Near my beloved 90 Mainyard there is the GIGANTIC swimming pool that was left there when the 2012 Olympic Games moved on. As well as walking past it a lot thinking ‘now I have joined I really must go in there’, #Babybernie has a swimming lesson in there every Thursday. We do it on this day […]
