NAILED IT

THE TWELFTH DOCTOR

The arrival of a new Doctor Who was treated like Christmas in the office. For months we sat around, waiting for a hero to appear, before one night he appeared in weird clothes to the delight of many. We’re not saying Father Christmas is the new Doctor, but we’re refusing to rule it out…  

CITY MAPPER

City Mapper is not only the most useful mobile phone app for getting around, but it also has a host of leftfield transport options including teleportation, catapult and our favourite, jetpack. As entertaining as those options are, it did mean that we spent a sizeable portion of this month building catapults powerful enough to get us home in one shot. We now have broken limbs.  

FAILED IT

THROWING YOUR BAKED ALASKA IN THE BIN

We discovered the eleventh commandment this month: not having a strop about baked goods. The whole office is addicted to The Great British Bake Off and were as shocked and appalled as Mary Berry at Ian’s major meltdown. We’d like to reassure readers that we have never thrown Premier Youthwork in the bin, however melted it has become.  

THE END OF SUMMER

When did it become October already? It’s definitely still May. Perhaps if we don’t acknowledge that summer is over, it won’t be. Some simple ideas to get you started: BBQs in the snow, youth work outdoor socials in the pouring rain, beach-themed nativities and a refusal to wear anything other than shorts and t-shirts.
