      Scott’s interest in photography sprang from a desire to document the world around him, which during his teenage years was populated by friends and family and now includes broad ranging commissions and long-term personal projects.

      Born in 1971, two days after the death of Nikita Khrushchev and on the same day as Stella McCartney, Scott took his first photograph about eight years later of a bird in the back garden. He decided that perhaps he might like to become a weatherman instead. *In 1984, he was given his first camera, a Zorki rangefinder, which came into his possession by way of a Russian sailor paying for a fish supper in his uncle’s chippie.

      Scott’s grandfather, himself an accomplished amateur, introduced the young Scott to the basics of black and white photography and soon Scott was eagerly anticipating the return of his films from the laboratory.

      During his late teens, Scott briefly strayed into the worlds of painting and graphic design. But whilst studying Foundation at Maidstone Art College, he rediscovered his interest in becoming a ‘lens smith’ .

        JEWISH JOKES 3

        • 1 • 2 • 3 •


        --------------------------------------------------------------------------------


        A Jewish girl tells her Catholic college roommate that she's going home for Rosh Hashanah.

        "Oh," the Catholic girl says. "That's the holiday when you light the eight candles, right?"

        "No," the Jewish girl replies. "That's Hanukah."

        "Oh, right," the Catholic girl says. "Rosh Hashanah is the holiday when you eat the unleavened bread?"

        "No," the Jewish girl replies. "That's Passover. Rosh Hashanah is the holiday when we blow the shofar."

        "See," the Catholic Girl says. "That's what I like about you Jews... you're so good to the hired help."

            Q. What's the BIG Question?

            A. How can we make the most of our people

            Every business, no matter what its size or type, is ultimately dependent for success on the quality and performance of its people.

            People are your greatest asset, but can be your worst nightmare. No amount of technology, planning, training or marketing will get you to where you want to be if you don’t help your people engage, develop and achieve their - and your - goals.

            The BIG Question is a revolutionary new business and personal development programme that helps organisations to become better at what they do. It encourages leaders, managers and staff to focus on what – for them – comprises ‘excellence’ - providing the tools and motivation to achieve it

              other insights into the (old) world of industry:

              Drove a bakery van

              The trick was to see how fast you could get the van to take a particular bend and hump back bridge down a certain country lane.

              Unfortunately this played havoc with the trays of meat pies in the back

              Being a fair chap I used to buy the damaged pies from the shops I delivered to so there would be no complaints.

              I was a fat bastard in them days!

                Also worked in a bed making factory... making beds!

                Trick was to overcome the interlocks on the air nail guns and fire them around the workshop

                I lasted a week

                  Arctic Monkeys ‘Favourite Worst Nightmare’
                  Arctic Monkeys silence the doubters on their second album with razor-sharp lyrics and spiky guitar hooks delivered repeatedly to the ribs.

                  Such was the popularity of the Arctic Monkeys’ triple-platinum selling debut album ‘Whatever People Say I Am, That’s What I’m Not’ that frontman Alex Turner and his Steel City buddies could have easily written ‘I’d Wager You Look Damn Fine At The Disco’, plus ten more retreads of their celebrated back-catalogue, stuck them on shop-shelves and it would have still sold by the bucketload.

                  And if some circles were to be believed, the four-piece were capable of little more than that. However, following a seemingly never-ending promotional schedule since the debut’s release in January 2006, the band have fashioned a quality body of work to silence even the harshest critic.
