I hope we all have a great day. I hope we become our best selves. It's one thing to hear that "abs are created in the kitchen", "reading feeds the brain" - it's another to act out. I hope we all do.

The team at Pieminister sent over some pies for me and colleagues. They were lovely. I quite like the taste of some savoury foods with a touch of a drink which brings a richness to it and the Brew Dog-infused Chick 'n' Hop or Moodog pies. The former has the Brewdog Punk IPA, as well as chicken, ham and cheddar, while the latter contained 5AM Saint Ale, steak and bacon. Both were succulent and filling. Well recommended.

They say it's what's inside that counts. What about... what's inside a paper bag? In June 60 boys and girls were given the chance to go on a speed dating night - with a paper bag on their head. The premise behind it was it was substance over style. Conversation flowed as the pressure to look good was out of the way.  People were given the opportunity to unleash their creative spirit by designing what went on their paper bags (see above) It took place at the Science Museum on a warm June evening and people got the chance to find out about 15 people of opposite sex (there were two rooms of 30) and just have fun! The guys behind it are Loveflutter who have created an app - the brainchild of Daigo Smith (pictured below) #SayNoToShallow Take a look!
