  Stephan, I received my ‘Come to Ulster’ t shirts this morning.
  Thanks for the fast turnaround, very impressive.

• Easy way to file emails in Outlook

  April 25, 2010 in Software

  For the last month I have been using a product called SimplyFile for Microsoft Outlook, and it really made me a lot more productive, I really wonder what I would do without it now.
  After I used it for a few days, it learned which messages belong to which folders and now all I need to [...]

  April 16, 2010 in Thoughts

  If you are think of staying in Washington DC avoid like the plague a B&B called “Dupont at the Circle”.
  We had such a terrible experience I am posting this blog post as a warning to other travellers. See the full review on TripAdvisor.

  January 15, 2009 in MBA

  In January I started a 16 month MBA course at HEC, Paris. The snow has finally melted after two weeks and the social ice-breaking has run its course; now the real work begins with an 80 page case to read…

• Drench

  May 22, 2008 in Marketing, Music

  Great piece of marketing with the classic 90’s SNAP dance tune and Brains from Thunderbirds! It seems to be trying to tap into the success of the near-cult Cadbury’s ‘Gorilla’ advert which also featured a strong retro anthem and a non-human character.

• Shell Wildlife Photographer of The Year 2008

  January 21, 2008 in London, Photography

  The Natural History Museum once again plays host to the Shell Wildlife Photographer of The Year 2008 exhibition. A truly delightful way of spending an hour of your time.
