Tic... Toc... Tic... Toc...Happy Monday!!

Can you believe Christmas is next week?!!

And breathe...

Tic… Toc...

The good news is there's still time to get organised and sorted for the tail end of 2020 and prepare for the new year.

At this point, it's probably best to make some lists. Here are some suggestions:

• To buy

• To do

• To thank

Make the lists, prioritise them, pick the top three from each, and then plan your day and week. If you only get these done you'll still be satisfied, right?!

Reading

Winter isn't everyone's favourite season but Wintering by Katherine May may just change your mind... Cosy up and explore the power of the cooler months.

Buying

Sustainable toys for the design-conscious. Ferrar make some beautiful, cuddly toys without the big environmental footprint. Maud the whale is a favourite.

Listening

If you've found yourself missing the sound of your workplace, Spotify has you covered with their ‘Sounds of Colleagues’ project. Click here to tune in to coffee machine, rain on window, keyboards or even the office dog.

Moving

Cycling in the wetter months is always a challenge, especially when you still need to look presentable at your destination. Warenhuys is looking to make cycling life better with well-turned-out, cycling-orientated handmade rainwear. Roll on, guys.

Drinking

Coffee from behind bars. This thoughtful enterprise is supporting prisoners by teaching new skills and helping build self-esteem through the art of roasting coffee beans.Read more here, buy it here, and drink it here.

Thought for the week

“Eventually....Execution beats luck. Consistency beats intensity. Curiosity beats smart. Kind beats clever. Together beats alone”

This could be my next tattoo...
