Would be interesting to run a sub thread from this to see how many of us are home based.


I understand Bob, you're quite right. But jacking it in is a huge risk in our modern Bushwellian new improved world with added Al Queda. It's like standing on the edge of precipice except in reality its everything you've achieved (no matter how little) on one side versus everything you stand to lose including relationships and being stigmatized by society as a failure because you dared. The truth is by taking the plunge you strengthen the relationships that really matter and weed out the dross.

Creative stuff: Design, interactive development (not web stuff), lots of thinking about all things visual and putting them on paper (or screen), basically. And a bit of project management.


My job title is 'The CreativeSomeone', which kind of sums up the fact I do all sorts!

You should live in Vauxhall then....


Which is a seemless segway into my job as a freelance motoring photographer/writer. (Mainly Classic Cars stuff...so if anyone has anything interesting give me a shout! Also if you drive a Merc, any age, then give me a PM, as I write about them also....)

That could be why this forum is so successful. There are lots of people on here who are.

A - Opinionated

B - Lazy

C - Both


It makes for good reading.


Let?s be honest, estate agents would probably fill it with baddly speld threads about silk ties and how to avoid the speed cameras on the South Circular.

    • I sometimes don't feel as comfortable as I did but it's not because I'm older, it's because I'm sober. Staggering home when I was younger I always felt I like a had a cloak of invisibility around me. And a magic compass - not even sure how I found my way home some nights. 
    • I'm London born and bred and have always considered myself streetwise having grown up in Notting hill (pre getrification) and I lived on the border of Harlesden (kensal green) in the 90's  when it was pretty sketchy round there .and I spent much of the 80's and early 90's in downtown New York.. I would walk everywhere at all hours of the day and night and never felt particularly uneasy largely because I was always mindful of my surroundings and walked with 'purpose'. I don't know wether its because I'm now so much older but I don't feel as comfortable as I used to walking round London. Today I was in the West end and I made sure to carry my bag on the opposite arm to that facing the kerb and felt uneasy when I saw people wizzing around on limebikes or scooters close to the kerb..I never got my phone out at all...I never used to feel like this but just recently I've had friends witness phone and bag snatching in central london in broad daylight..apparently it happened so fast in both instances there was nothing anyone could do to help..One phone snatching was during the tube strike 7.30am two guys on bikes grabbed a mans phone..My friend took the victim to a nearby hotel to sit down and recover the hotel said due to the tube strike they had witnessed many duo's of youth out very early on bikes aware that there were more pedestrians around at that time with their phones out trying for Ubers or looking at directions. I would'nt say I feel 'unsafe' I just feel more aware of being a possible target for crime than formerly. I don't know if this is due to being older or due to reading the press.
    • The fact everyone has had a CCTV camera in their pockets for the last 15+ years has done a huge amount to prevent and mitigate random drunken violence.  Thugs can't get away with what they used to anymore.
