When to replace your central heating!
This is a tricky question to answer, clearly the worst time to replace your old central heating system is just when it has broken down, because then you have no central heating. So you clearly, can't wait until the middle of Winter.
Autumn would be a good time, gearing up toward winter, getting all the preparations in, making sure that your old boiler is still working, but then isn't everyone thinking the same thing. There must be a rush to get replacement boilers starting as soon as the Autumn kicks in, so this is when boiler replacement engineers and companies will also be getting ready, and adjusting their prices accordingly.
No, by far the best time for anyone to be thinking about central heating cover is right now, when you absolutely know that you will not need your boiler, and the companies are triying their hardest to gat any custom through the door.

Hanseatic League
During the Medieval Era many of the great city states surrounding the Baltic & North Seas banded together to create a an economic and trading alliance, they called it the Hanseatic League.
Probably beginning in the now German city of Lübeck around the 1150s [though historians argue the fine details] the league can in many ways to be a previous attempt at forming something like the modern European Union.
Like the original common market, the League was not a political alliance, although it did have a sort of common defense policy to counteract the rise in the number of pirates on the High seas at the time.
At the Zenith of the league it had trading posts, and relationships with cities all around Northern Europe, up to Bergen in Norway, and had accommodation in Newcastle waiting for them if they had to travel far enough up this side of the North Sea.
As with everything back then, without a strong political will, and without any real leadership, it was always going to go into decline, and so it was. But the League left us with many good things [not just concepts of unity] my favourite being a certain type of beer. Hansa Sommerøl.

Digital Marketing
The buzz these days is for you to go digital with your marketing strategy, on every webpage for a company there are now buttons inviting you follow their twitter feed or join their facebook group. Everything nowadays has to be done through a digital marketing agency based on social networking sites and internet-based viral ad campaigns.
The thing is that although traditional marketing is not yet dead, neither is digital marketing all encompassing, to the point that it is still necessary to meld the two forms. Although I am here online, most of the people out there in the world have nothing to do with the world wide web. There is still space in the world for billboard posters, television/radio advertising, it has worked so far, and all the latest social media buzzes will not stop this from being the truth.
We in the world have a long way to go until the digital revolution has finally overcome traditional forms of media, but for the time being we will have to try to get along together.

Sun Awareness Week
I noticed that this is Sun Awareness Week, which seems a bit strange to me, because where I am just now is no time to be thinking about the sun, unless you are daydreaming about it.
But good on somebody out there as it can't be to soon to warn somebody about getting sunburnt, they might for all I know be off on a holiday to the Bahamas where it might be a bit sunnier.
Found out about it on the through a press release, strange what you find when you look!
Now I'm gonna go and try to find some sun to worry about.
