Thanks Iain, good to hear from you. Your blog looks like a useful further resource for those inspired to look more deeply into creative thinking following listening to the podcast with Dr de Bono.
Thanks to Alex and Uncle Spats for an excellent review of my book ‘Juggle!’. Uncle Spats – I think you really summarised the book well, glad you enjoyed it, you made some good points too.
