Make Halloween a total scream this year with some of our frightfully fun ideas for pumpkin carving, spooky recipes, costumes and Halloween apps.

    Four More Tremendous Time Travelling Films

    April 6, 2016 / No Comments

    Last Sunday the clocks went forward once again, which means longer brighter evenings and mild spring weather, hurrah! To celebrate such a chirpy time of year, we thought we’d compile another top list of tremendous time travelling films for your viewing pleasure… Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure This time travelling film is such a cinematic icon, that we don’t even know why we didn’t include it in last year’s list. Anyhow, this comedy adventure starring a young Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter is a guitar-shredding, phonebox hopping epic that is still as entertaining to watch today as it was back in 1989. Groundhog Day Do you ever feel like you’re…

    Six Degrees of Separation: The Gift Experience Edition

    March 30, 2016 / No Comments

    First proposed in 1929 by Hungarian writer Frigyes Karinthy, six degrees of separation is the notion that anyone in the world can be connected through a chain of no more than six acquaintances. Since the introduction of this theory, many people have put it to the test, including Microsoft.  After checking an astounding 30 billion electronic messages they confirmed that six degrees actually works – well almost. By studying these messages, they discovered that any two strangers are distanced on average by 6.6 degrees, which basically means you are connected to Mick Jagger or The Queen by a string of seven or fewer introductions! There is even a game called The Six…

    Re-Invent Cupid for the Chance to WIN a Valentine’s Day Prize (CLOSED)

    February 10, 2016 / 1 Comment

    Please note, this competition is now closed. We would once again like to say a big congratulations to Lisa Lynn (@elephantjoos) – our #ReInventCupid competition winner and top doodler. We’s also like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who took part, we very much enjoyed checking out your incredible Cupid re-creations. Over the Christmas period, we asked you to re-invent Santa. It was so successful, we thought we’d do the same for everyone’s favourite Valentine’s Day cherub, Cupid. So, we scoured the internet in pursuit of the ways in which people have re-imagined Cupid, and we reasked our talented colleague Rachael to draft up her own version. Check out these cool creations for…
