the art of juggling


i'm sure this gets written (complained) about a lot but - but there really isn't enough hours in the day when you're trying to juggle a full time job with freelance commitments! it's fun, and i am over the moon that i am still getting freelance work despite not having the time to dedicate to actually looking for it - but things like blogging i always seem to fall behind on, and it ends up that when i do get the chance to update it's a huge messy mish-mash of everything!

so i'll do my best to keep this as short as possible.

and this is a little flyer i knocked up for a new venture that ice breaker promotions and the bike guru café have recently started doing on wednesday nights at the colchester bus station (next to firstsite!) i like to call it ICEBREAKER VS BIKE GURU but in reality it's just called the bike guru presents music and movie night. catchy!
