Congratulations to Matt Cardle - you made me a handsome £12.50

Well done to Matt Cardle on his fantastic and well deserved victory last night.        I believed in him from day one, placing a fool-hardy bet of £2.50, with some rather risqué odds!


I wonder what to spend my hard earned money on. Well done Team Cardle!

Queenston Arthouse success with secret John Bramwell gig!!

The opening night of Queenston Art House was a total success, full credit to the hard work of Laura Mayall and Terry McDermott on the fantastic organisation of the event.

John Bramwell played a secret gig as a treat for the intimate gathering.







One point to remember - if John Bramwell says that he is going to the bar to get you a drink, he isn't coming back (Mr Forgetfull)!!!

The work from all the artists involved was fantastic, especially that of Russell Hatton and Gail Troth (to name but a few).

Corrie crash - what happened to that poor tram driver??

I am off to Manchester tonight for the Queenston Art House exhibition and it just occured to me... After watching the horrific scenes in Corrie over the last few days, nobody seems bothered about what has happened to the poor tram driver, or any of the other poor sods on the tram!!!




Is it just me, or is that a tragedy in itself. Shame on you Weatherfield!

I am working on some pieces for Art London today, some exciting new work portraying some iconic London images - watch this space.

Also, have you seen the news?? Ken Livingstone has beaten Oona King to the Labour nomination for London mayor, setting him up for a political rematch in the capital with his old rival Boris Johnson in 2012. 

I didn't see that one coming, I'm guessing that David Blunkett didn't either!

Over to you Moo!



I use Moo products to advertise my art work. I created some post cards of my last handwritten piece of the Twin Towers, using the names of people who died in the September 11th terror attack.

These were then sent out to the press as part of a media kit and also as thank you's to those who published articles.

I always remember to include a few mini cards, one for the person I am writing to and one for them to pass onto somebody else. Network, network, network...

Thank you Moo, over to you!

'Buildings don't go anywhere, they shouldn't be restless'

Hi everybody!

I have just finished my picture of the Twin Towers using the names of the victims that died within the trade centre, the passengers on United Airlines Flight 93, American Airlines Flight 77 and from within the Pentagon.

I did this as a mark of respect to all the individuals who died that day for the 9th anniversary of the terror attack tomorrow.

The quote 'Buildings don't go anywhere, they shouldn't be restless' are the words of Minoru Yamasaki, the architect who designed the World Trade Centre, thirty one years ago!!

I will keep you updated with what is happening with this piece.
