Welcome to Pepperstreet

So how to start a blog, well I'm a web designer, with my own business, the focus of which is most definately squeezing as many holidays out of the year as possible. My husband tells me I'm always full of advise. Two types of advise, and he didn't specify which one. However he's right I  do love dishing out advise so my blog is going to be advisory featuring everything from web design to the weather in the Peaks, to my thoughts of how to tackle the political issues of the day.

I gave up full time employment to dedicate a month a year to taking young people overseas on expedition with World Challenge Expeditions. No one seemed all that keen on giving me 16 weeks off a year, the only person who thought it was a good idea was me, so I figured the best boss in the world would be me ... and here I am nearly 2 years later. Making a living and perhaps more importanly living. I love designing, but I also love travelling so the combination works well for me. World Challenge encourage the young people to run their own expeditions so really my role is simply to mop up the mess and stop them actually killing themselves in ingenious ways, of which there are many in the wilds of Africa. I will in the fullness of time share some of the amusements of expedition here which are decidedly more interesting than the exploits of day to day web designing but for now my advise is to travel, even if it's only to Scotland or the next county.
