Steve will be missed.

The Roman civilization built things of amazing beauty.  Even mundane things such as public conveniences were intricately crafted.

At what point in the development of our civilization did we lose this?

Why is it now acceptable to play a repetitive Bossa Nova beat down the phone when you’re on hold?

All these moments are taken away from our daily lives when they could be filled with musical wonder. (Not of the Stevie kind)

Hubalicious is a project I've been involved since its start in January, it's a web site for promoting the arts in Bournemouth & Poole to young people. 

It's created and run by 14-17 year olds who, last night programmed and ran the launch event at Mr Kyps.

It's amazing what they achieve as a team, particularly in light of the current tabloid view of young people.
