Thoughts and ideas of a dyslexic designer/developer
I attended a networking workshop at the BBC the other day. I was wondering how it was going to go, because sometimes the workshops at work can be hit and miss. The trainer for the workshop was down to earth Darren Jenkins from digienable. Darren was good and his advice was welcomed. Now I know…
I have already declared myself a feminist in the blog post my crisis with masculinity and how feminism set me free. I originally was expecting lots more push back than I actually got but not being far from a good debate I thought I’d let you all know that this Sunday on BBC Merseyside, I’ll be…
I’m on BBC Merseyside radio again with Jody and Ngunan tonight (Sunday 17th November). This time its the height debate… To be very clear this is the debate. How many women would go out with someone shorter than themselves? How many men would go out with someone taller than themselves? Why in 2013 is this…
Simon seemed to be having a conversation with the writer of the list how to be a fcuking man on twitter. He then added me into the conversation as such. So I had a look at the list which was being talked about. What I found sometimes made me smile and nod but others made…
Back on the airwaves of BBC Radio Merseyside discussing topics of the heart. From how much to share with your partner to a critical deconstruction of my love life, its all on BBC Merseyside (1hour 10mins in). Some how we turned from me telling/blaming the ladies of upfront about how I paid when I should…
Northen Lass 32 spilled the beans and part of her heart out in her latest article. A few months down the line, it hasn’t worked out with Mr Facestalk and I. Sadly it seems our paths are not aligned and our future selves wanted different stuff. Rather than crying onto my laptop, which I’ve done…
I’m cursing myself for falling for the stupid mistake of paying for the bill in one of my previous dates in the last few months. My mistake was paying for the bill in total, something which I don’t usually do. So what happened? Well we were having a good time, chatting away and I suggested…
The BBC hasn’t got the best track record of covering issues like dating… Who could forget (I certainly won’t) the terrible year of making love? But to be fair they did good job covering the problems with online dating in Panaroma recently. However compare it to Channel4’s recent mating/dating. 2 run away hits… Dates and…
I sent a email to my friends about my debate on the radio tonight… Just in-case you didn’t know, I’m due today to debate the topic of “who pays on the first date” with my good internet friend Northern Lass 32 (http://www.theguardian.com/profile/northern-lass). I assume most of you know my feelings about this but I guess…
When I wrote the blog post about me not being a player, it was following a heated debate at a party. Chris has been a friend for a short time and after splitting up from a long term relationship 2 years ago has been single and looking like myself.As a response to my blog post,…
When Josh originally tweeted me, I got to say I looked but was in too much pain to look at in detail. Now looking at it again, I like the idea of the gastro club and I won’t lie foaf dining is a take off that but for people who never met before. This one…
I just saw SingleBlackMale.org is looking for new writers… We Need New Writers! Do You Want to Be One of Them? http://www.singleblackmale.org/2013/06/11/we-need-new-writers-do-you-want-to-be-one-of-them/ My instant thought is yes I would love to be one… SBM for me is sometimes a little sanity in the mix of love and dating. Some posts are bang on and I’m…
I saw this on single black male the other day, and honestly laughed to myself then tweeted it out, kind of knowing the outrage it might cause… Let’s crunch some numbers. According to the most recent Census data, the median paycheck for Americans is $26,364, which means half of Americans made more and half made less.…
During Future Everything I took part on Chattr. My instant thought was to share some gems I’d learned from dating. But after reading Trueview’s blog I started thinking heck I could easily share some pearls without upsetting anyone. Now I have to point out that I am still single and therefore this means all my…
Perceptive media from Ian Forrester Its been less than 14 days since we launched our Perceptive Media prototype to the world and the feedback has been coming back thick and fast. As usual please keep it going and do pass it on to others who may have not heard it yet, even if they have…
