We've found Stoke's unique selling point...

it IS the spoinging!

Located between Birmingham and Manchester it is the magic, the fairy dust, the bit in between!

We're just about to set up a group "SexUpStoke" :)

Lovely to meet you, see you at the Leopard later!

Hi Clare

thanks for the interest in culturing stuff.

you look as busy as I am. I'll try to have a good look through your profile as soon as I can. I think we're aiming for the same things.

feel free to drop in at www.culturingstuff.com it's early days and I'm just one man trying to fill a community with interesting art through media. I like what you say about social journalism haha... I've been a social documentary photographer for twenty years and seen my fair share of misery and so now I suppose I'm trying to bring the positive to light as apposed to expressing the negative. I think we'd get on.

Cheers for the ad

Thanks for the heads up on the mistake on my blog post. It seems that the more i type the worse i get. Too much text for an artist :-) I can pop up and visit you next week, what day is good for you? I can do any day except Thursday.
