Calm Your Beans

Coming home to a warm and cosy home on a cold winter’s day is one of life’s simple pleasures. But with energy costs continually rising and serious concerns about global warming, most people are reluctant to have their heating on all the time. If you want to save some cash and be environmentally friendly while [...]

Nothing says Halloween quite like a wee carved pumpkin with a hideous face sitting outside your front door. Get it right and your traditional, authentic Halloween skills will earn you much respect and kudos. Get it wrong and your friends will just pity your lack of Halloween aptitude. Now, carving a good pumpkin isn’t particularly [...]

Our office mate Jack has a rather unusual living arrangement; he’s sharing his flat with a real live (or should that be real dead?) ghost. When Jack first told us about his supernatural experiences, we immediately decided he was off his rocker and started the process to have him committed to an insane asylum. Unfortunately [...]

A broken zip slider can be really annoying; you’ve got a perfectly good item of clothing or whatever and the only thing wrong with it is that the zip slider is broken or has come off and you can’t get it back on. This happened to me recently with one of my favourite jackets; a [...]

One of the strangest things about having a member of our team regularly chatting to a ghost via Skype is how quickly we’ve all gotten used to it. You’d think we’d all be freaking out and running for the hills, but everyone’s actually just started asking Jack how The Ghost’s getting on. And what his [...]

Whoa, we just realised that it’s been quite some time since we did a post of cute animal videos. In fact it’s been ages. So I’d like to offer my sincerest apologies and do my best to make it up to you dear readers by bringing you some of the best cute panda videos on [...]

The spooky goings on continue in our office. It would seem that Jack’s supernatural Skyping last month was not an isolated incident. The Ghost is back and seems intent on spreading some chaos in Jack’s life. With an invisible webcam chat having cured Jack of his scepticism he’s come to accept that he’s just going [...]

The other day my friend and colleague Jack was busily cracking on with his day’s work when he had a mind-blowing supernatural experience. Jack had always been a sceptic when it came to the supernatural. He would routinely scoff at TV shows like Most Haunted and Ghost Hunters calling the stars charlatans, frauds and hoax-mongers. However that all [...]

When you’re perusing the Formula 1 calendar there’s one race that’s always a little different to the others. Mixed in amongst the names of great racing nations the name of a continent pops out: Europe. The European Grand Prix has been a great fixture which and brought about some superlative races and dramatic moments, such [...]

Juggling can be a pretty mesmerising and amazing art form, just to prove it here a few videos from some of the best jugglers in the world. All these incredibly talented people have different strengths and styles so I think it would be a little rude to rank them. So here in no particular order [...]
