Publican Local - Blackburn

As I have just added the Publican Local piece for Coventry I thought it's be a good idea to add the Publican Local for Blackburn too.

Any, non to scathing, feedback is appreciated. 

Publican Local - Coventry

Here's a link to my Publican Local Article for Coventry.

During my time doing the article in Coventry I found that there was a lot of negativity in the trade about the Wetherspoons presence and the city's management company, CV1.

Any way here's the article read it for yourself.

Shanty town under the Holte End...

I've just seen the Birmingham Mail's story on a homeless man living in a shanty town style house under the Holte End. Frankly this is shocking .

Aston Villa is a major force in British football owned by an American millionaire but why can't a football club the size of Villa afford to some some decent security.

As an occasional visitor to Villa park it cost's me more than a pretty penny to sit on the Holte yet this guy is set up with the same view from home. When I'm sat up in the stands in my beer and smoke free environment this fella is probably drinking his Gold label and living the high life. Thanks Villa!

In all seriousness this is obviously a terrible situation and hopefully the little bit of press will help him get out of his hole. I'm just not sure why the Birmingham Mail chose a picture of Stephen Ireland during his time on the bench at AVFC to illustrate it.

Smudge Magazine

As per my previous posts I'm adding my work from Smudge Magazine.

Smudge is a relatively new lifestyle magazine covering the Warwick and Leamington Spa area. They're a great little magazine and I can't recommend them enough. I aim to do more work for Smudge if time is permitting.

Well I digress. Here are two of my articles that were published in Smudge:

Publican Work

I'm going to put up some of the work I did whilst on work experience for Publican Magazine in London.

It's a selection of both news and features and was my first published work outside of student newspapers.

Here are the links:

Examples of previous work.

Before I start setting the world to rights I thought I'd bore you by showcasing some of my previous work.


In the next few day's I aim to add examples of my freelance work to illustrate it and I'm all about.

Please stay tuned though, I'm sure I'll be speaking nonsense soon.
