Bill Edwards
American Fun
I met up with professional photographer and videographer Bill Edwards today. I was very impressed with his work and if you have a requirement in Florida, USA you should look him up. Here’s his business website.
Bill’s another friend with his heart in the right place and his brain a little left of centre! He does tremendous work with rescue dogs but now he is training for the Savage Races. #respect! As you can imagine, this got my adrenaline flowing! I’m up for it. You guys?

Feliz Navidad and Merry Christmas to you all
Tito Vilanova
Tito Vilanova
I was shocked to hear that Tito has had another cancer attack and that he must be operated on tomorrow. As a Real Madrid fan, I send him my very best wishes for a prompt and full recovery. He has done a magnificent job since he took over from Pep and my thoughts at this time are with his family and friends.
Real Sociedad
Real Sociedad
Nothing to do with me but an interesting story from Inside Spanish football.
Real Sociedad will wear unique shirts bearing the names of fans for their match against Sevilla tonight.
On Tuesday morning, Real Sociedad presented the kits they will wear for their home match against Sevilla, with each player’s shirt uniquely bearing the name of a season ticket holder.
The idea behind the incentive and the homage paid to supporters, was explained by Club President Jokin Aperribay: “The fans are the soul, the nourishment and the reason for Real Sociedad. For this reason, we’re uniting the names of our members with the shirts.”
Aperribay continued to explain that the basis of the idea: “It’s for the history, because the fans are the of the club and this is a tribute to those that have supported us for many years. When we went down to the Segunda, we overcame that difficulty because we retained 20,000 members. For the present, because the fans show enthusiasm, which the team receives and returns to them. We want to achieve bigger objectives, but we can’t do that without the fans. For the future, because that will be determined by the fans.”
“It is very important that fans feel they are necessary for the club to function. For that reason, we decided to unite two of the most important things at Real Sociedad – The fans and the shirt.”
Player Xabi Prieto, who has also been a member at the club since 1992, added: “We’re fortunate that we can play every week. Against Sevilla, we’ll have our members playing with us.”
Each player will bear the name of a different supporter on their shirt, recognising the many years of support each of those fans has given the club. Asier Illarramendi concluded: “The crowd is always there and is a very important part of the club.
Moo Moos
Moo Moos
Oh, this is getting exciting. News is out of my trip and the sponsorships are flowing in. Remember that the idea is to get the maximum PR and NOT just to get one mega sponsor. Although if Tesco or Mercadona came along….! Seriously, there were three new names today but to be fair to Costa Ticket, Costasite and Moo Moos, I will detail them separately.
Moo Moos is quite simply one of my favourite bars on the coast. It’s not the biggest but you are always assured of a warm welcome. When I told Mine Hosts what I was planning, I was offered a generous figure without even asking. Thanks, both!
They have a great evening coming up this week and if you are on the Costa del Sol, please do get down to support two of the nicest people on the coast who are trying to “KEEP MUSIC LIVE”.

Generali Seguros
My name is David and I work for one of the world’s largest insurance companies, Generali Seguros.
When I heard my long-standing friend, Steve Hall, was embarking on an epic challenge I just had to help out.Previously being an athlete myself, I know allowing him to be free mentally, free of worry, will enhance his performance.
So after some thought I decided, the best way I can help Steve is with two ways.
Firstly I am very pleased to provide Steve with Insurance to keep his mind at ease, knowing one of the world´s largest insurers Generali Seguros will take great care of him if the worst should happen on his 5000 km journey. We specialize in a variety of Insurance products, there is very little I cannot insure! I Will also be very pleased to pledge 5% of my policies towards the nominated charities when you mention “Steve´s incredible challenge.”
Secondly teaming up with I COVERT SOLUTIONS who specialize in the very top end security solutions, a very special tracking device that will not only allow folk to track his movements, but if something was to occur that caused him distress, he will be able to press a button on the device which will alert 5 mobile phones of his exact location. The device is lightweight, waterproof, and is no bigger than a small matchbox. The device also incorporates a website for visually tracking the device.
If I can help you with any insurance at all, or require more information regarding insurances or these very smart trackers, please contact me:
Tel: 603 142 786
GOOD LUCK, STEVE
Perez Legal Group
Perez Legal Group
Whether I want to admit it or not the chances of things going wrong on such a journey are high. In 2010, I was chased through the streets of Watford by a gang, robbed of my camera in Chesterfield, knocked off my bike near Newcastle and, of course, I lost every possession I own when my storage centre was burnt down. All situations resolved themselves but I suppose I must admit, that trip was on a bit of a wing and a prayer. This time I am delighted to confirm that I have Perez Legal Group behind me. As soon as I approached the principal, Raquel Pérez immediately agreed to offer legal advice for the trip. Thanks.
So, who is she?

David Long
Posted: 20th 11 2012
As soon as I announced my little “joy-ride”, my friend David Long from 4Com PLC in the UK was quick to wish me well. Today, it’s my turn to wish him well as he gets on his bike but does not get wet or run down by “White Van Man”. He’s a bit busy pushing the peddles but sent me this:
4Com have a long standing relationship with Variety the Children’s Charity. As a company we have sponsored a Sunshine Coach, with another on the way soon. Our staff also give up time to help at events such as the big day out at Bournemouth Pier recently, and raise money for local projects.
On the 29th and 30th of November, a team of 4Com employees, will attempt to cycle 1,000 kilometres in 30 hours.
Not even Sir Chris Hoy or Bradley Wiggins could do that!
So how will we achieve it? Well, we are cheating a little bit. We have two top of the range exercise bikes that have been loaned by the fine folks at Wattbike www.wattbike.com (big thanks to Ben at Blue Soup Communications, one of our customers, for sorting that out) and we will be using both bikes in a non-stop relay through the night to try and achieve our target.
“Why are you doing this?” I hear you ask.
Well, it’s really quite simple. We want to raise £2,777 to buy a car seat, a very expensive car seat. It’s for a special young lad called Liam who lives in the Bournemouth area, who earlier this year was just a normal 4 year old, running around and causing mayhem – it’s what they do best. But then he became sick, very sick. He was rushed into hospital six months ago with a perforated bowel which turned into septicaemia leaving him with severe brain injuries.
Liam has since lost all his motor skills which the doctors do not believe he will get back, as the part of his brain for motor skills has been damaged. Liam also has to be fed through a gastro tube. He just lays in bed all day now unless his Mother can take him out in a specialist car seat which at the moment he doesn’t have. Liam understands everything that is said to him but cannot respond other than by smiling or crying.
So, as you can see, 1000km in 30 hours is not a big ask for us, to try and help this local family.
But here comes the big ask.
Would you help us to try and raise some cash towards this target?
We have set up a page on Just Giving
Thank you, from everyone at 4Com
