March was extra busy with work of my own to try engage with the local freelancers and self employed people in Deptford. Wednesday nights in a number of local bars and pubs to starting gauging and engaging with who wants to get ‘social and sociable’. To avoid unnecessary whinging (no venue offered any promotion), YT […]
Mycenae Digital The sessions are running close to the wind in terms of being manageable, with access issues for wifi stability and lack of a lift. The former makes delivery hard, but YT reached a peak in my training practice at one point before Christmas, sitting down with a small group of ‘Techy Timers’ and […]

James has been repurposing the MAZIzone, working with Central Saint Martins and aiming to bring in […]
