• You May well know that this is a drawing of Olly from my Olympia books. He’s tearing down the sacred running track of Olympia. Once you’ve drawn him, pop down to the Libraray and borrow a copy of the books or get one from Amazon!

  • He looks a bit like he wants to be Usain Bolt, but he’s not! Follow the video and you will be drawing him in no time.

  • I had an amazing night last night at the Hewlett Packard Smart Business Awards, where I won the Social Media Award for all my work on YouTube! It was a wonderful validation for all the hard work I’ve put into YouTube in the last couple of years.

    here were an amazing array of businesses there, ranging from colour-coded drill bit to fresh food deliveries to Hi tech microchip cooling systems, run by a friend of mine, who lives about ten miles away! We neither of us knew that we had entered for the awards and were very surprised to see each other there!

    I met some very interesting and passionate people. Small businesses are amazing. individuals and small groups of people put everything they have into trying to make a success of their ideas. In this grey state of recession it is life-affirming to meet people who are carrying on regardless, building companies to generate growth and much-needed employment.

    Well done to all the winners and many thanks to Hewlett Packard and their partners in the competition for a wonderful evening and thank you for choosing me.
