About Me and my Creativity.
I have been keen on doing patchwork and having ideas for projects like this Creative Cafe. Am hopeless at art! Would like to learn more about photography.
Love music but can only play chopsticks on the piano! Love reading and don't mind writing.
Likes and Dislikes
Like Mashed potato and
Don't Like marzipan

Do you have any disabilities that affect your creativity?
I have been diagnosed with Bipolar for 30 years. I guess it affects my creativity but is hard to compare since I have no experience of not having bipolar! At college being a bit manic ment I could stay up all night writing essays and meet the deadlines but getting too manic makes everything more chaotic rather than creative in my experience.
Do you wish to sell your products in the Creative Cafe Salesroom?
Not really.
Where did you hear about Creative Cafe? If you heard about Creative cafe from another member please say who as those recruiting most new members will win prizes.
Myself!
Any other News?
Creative Cafe is set up and run by volunteers with mental health and other disabilities in Brighton Uk. We say 'Don't Let Disability Mean Inequality' and want this site to provide equal opportunities for disabled members to show off their creativity alongside members who have no disabilities in a friendly and
encouraging atmosphere.
Thanks to Timothy Buckley, Peter Loudoun, Tom Higgins , Brian Goddard and Tony Davies for agreeing to be trustees and volunteers helping with this Creative Cafe project.

Down with the decorations

Traditionally the decorations don't come down until 12th night which I think is the 6th of January so I am a little early taking down the baubles and tinsel which have been decorating the Main page and my own page these last weeks. I couldn't bring myself to go straight back… Continue

Jill! Thanks for keeping in touch with me while I have been a silent member! I am trying to do be more active in my social media networks in 2009. So Thanks again for keeping the faith. The new sales room looks great and I can definitely tell you have been hard at work getting it set up. I think I would be interested in one of the links for a $1 but I am not really sure how to do all of that. Are you on Facebook? If so let's connect there to, it's a great way to meet more of your friends and get new members for creative cafe, both buyers and sellers.

Looking forward to getting to know your group better.

Hi Jill

So that bloke is your friend on myspace eh? My mate Liz has one of Bob Marley's sons as a friend on myspace. I think it is all a bit of hype to get their profiles raised but then I am ever the sceptic!!!

Trying to get motivated as I have a trainee social worker coming to visit me today at 3pm but all I want to do is go back to sleep. Bad isn't it?

Will check out the new salesroom group. Will join at some point but I need to make more cards first. I managed 2 yesterday and am hoping that on Friday I will make some more.

Enjoy your day

Hello Lara

You shameless romantic you!

A friend of mine watched a programme last night about women in love with inanimate objects. One wanted to marry the Eiffel Tower, and had a Berlin Wall fetish...

Which inanimate object would you choose and why?

The Rock

Evening Jill

Pavlova sounds perfect to me. It counts as cake in my book. That is the book of all things delicious that look or taste a bit like cake :>)

Dad has got back to his flat. For how long, I don't know but from what his friend says he is up to his old tricks again. Tricks I am refusing to get involved in.

I have focussed on me tonight and had a delicious take away. Yes, it was naughty but I am worth it. Ha!

Talking about birdies. I bought a big bag of high energy nuts (so it said on the packet front) which I have been chucking up on the top of the shed for our feathery friends. The last week must have been pretty tough on them.

Hi Jill

As I wrote to Azzi think I am suffering worry lag. I haven't even had the energy or desire to blog on my own blog. I am finding it all a bit too futile.

Will check out new blogs on the cafe.

Good luck with all the clicking. Perhaps we can have afternoon bevvies and cake? What do you think?
