Here be dragons...

Man, this is so cool I just had to share!

Origami pushed to it's limits and beyond. Take five minutes to have a look and be blown away by the skill involved in these amazing creations here... Sadly there is a language barrier, but you don't need to read to appreciate the creative talent.Thank you for Mandy for directing me to this.

If any of you think you can come close to this, then send me a photo and remember, pinkfrog creative are running a creative competition at the moment, so you never know, you could win something...

Orange squash

Yes, I confess, I completely got into the spirit (excuse the pun) of Halloween, In fact I could even say I got in, swam a mile and spent a fair amount of time just floating about in it, am I sad, or is it nicer to say just 'young at heart'?

I know it probably seems like an age ago that Halloween week passed us by (I say week, as it seems to get longer every year...) but I have to say that this year had to be the best Halloween I can remember. I wonder if I am becoming slightly influenced by our American cousins, who take it all so seriously...

Slicker than a slick thing...

Wow, I so want one of these! I challenge anyone not to love the concept...

I stumbled upon this gem only recently, although by all accounts they have been around a in various states of development for a while. The ultimate, stylish smart phone accessory for any design conscious gadget-meister.

Tinker, taylor...

So you want a film that grabs your attention and holds it? Look no further, Tinker, Taylor, Soldier, Spy has it all. Filmed on location in London, Hungary and Turkey this is surely set to become a classic. A great cast come together and create a masterpiece of modern cinema. The Guardian and The Telegraph award it 5 stars, with the independent being a bit stingy with only 4. Some people have called it indulgent, but I just appreciate quality entertainment and as indulgent as it is, the verdict is pretty unanimous – this is movie gold.

Your chance to win – creative competition

As you will most certainly know by now, I encourage creativity at every level and as such, we at pinkfrog creative, have now launched the Christmas competition that I just know you have all been waiting for.

Complete creative freedom awaits you. Either create something in a medium of your choice (we don't mind what it is just as long as it is creative) or you can devise a fabulous 5 minute skill for the rest of the world to learn.

In de Nile

Well OK maybe not in the Nile (too many crocodiles) but on the Nile. Yes that is where I have just spent the last 7 days. I have to say that when I booked it I was a little unsure... I always thought I was a little young for cruising. But no, trust me, on this trip the more youthful you are, the better it will be. Less of a holiday and more of an expedition is how I would describe it, and an excellent one at that.

Getting your priorities straight with O2

Ok, for those of you who are already O2 customers and you haven't taken advantage of their priority moments offering – why not? It's free and they carry a huge amount of promotions at any given time, you have nothing to lose. Well apart from the two minutes or so it will take you to register for the service.
