A great WordPress.com site. Skip to primary content. Skip to secondary content. Monthly Archives: August 2015. August 28, 2015. According to the Office of National Statistics (ONS), retail sales for homewares and furniture enjoyed a sizeable 13.4% year on year uptick in July, thanks largely to some creative pricing by retailers. Well, the practice of discounting to attract consumers is hardly revelatory, but if it has succeeded in generating business during what is typically a slow trading period, then s...

Much like the collapse of Woolworths in 2008, the loss of BHS is sure to go down as one of the worst in British retailing history, threatening as it does 11,000 jobs and leaving behind more than 160 stores. We’d be lying if we said we hadn’t heard these charges levelled at failing businesses before, with a failure to adapt to the ever changing landscape of modern retail seemingly a fairly common fa...

I must confess that I am perhaps the quintessential example of the disillusioned British voter. But despite my anarchic leanings toward antiestablishmentarianism. I have this week been giving the political circus of the upcoming election considerable thought. Thus far, the battle for number 10 has seen Labour. Meanwhile, the Conservatives. With the public b...

Anyone who knows me well will be aware that I have a pathological fear of flying. Even the shortest of flights require me to take enough Diazepam to sedate a rhino just to get me through them. In fact, without medication I’ve been known to leave permanent indentations in the armrests as I cling on for dear life. Of course, alongside driving, another great example of this is our tota...

Returning from paternity leave this week it has really struck me just how much can change in the space of a fortnight.

In the opening scene to one of my favourite movies Cool Hand Luke – an effortlessly cool Paul Newman casually lops the heads off a line of parking meters in a gesture of rebellion against the ruling establishment. Now, as much as I like to imagine a group of local council officials tensely debating the matter in the Cardigan halls of power with the same urgency that a US military bu...
