The Brass bike challenge!
Last weekend on a cloudy Saturday morning, five Brasscals set off on a biking challenge, taking the Way of the Roses route. 175m… 12 hours of riding… 1.268 vertical miles… 10,000 burnt calories… 4 punctures (all belonging to the same bike) 3 cathedrals… 2 seas (North and Irish)… 2 counties (Lancashire and Yorkshire)… 1 bout [...]
Brass Friday five: marketing clichés
A mere two episodes into the new series of The Apprentice, and we’ve been treated to a veritable feast of cheesy clichés and toe-curling marketing sayings already. “Don’t tell me the sky is the limit when there’s footsteps on the moon” declared one eager young entrepreneur in episode one this Tuesday. This particular business woman [...]
Brass Friday five: Royal Wedding memorabilia
Co-authored by Raheela Akhtar. As Kate and William prepare for their upcoming nuptials, the nation is getting involved by purchasing Royal Wedding merchandise by the bucket load (or commemorative bag load). Some of the most iconic British brands around are jumping on the Royal Wedding bandwagon and helping us to celebrate the big day with [...]
Brass Friday five: advertising slogans
If you read our recent ‘Advertising? Simples’ blog post, you’ll have had your appetite well and truly whet for some serious slogan-ing. (If you haven’t, you should go read it. There’s a picture of a meerkat and everything.) So who are we to leave you dissatisfied? Read on for five of the best/worst/funniest advertising slogans [...]
Brass Friday five: scams
Did you know that the first mention of April Fool’s Day in literature was probably in Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales, in which “the vain cock Chauntecleer is tricked by a fox”? If not, you should check out a fantastic new site called Wikipedia. Conceited poultry aside, I think we all know what day it is, and [...]
Brass Friday five: party essentials
It’s Twitter’s fifth birthday this week and, in the words of Frank Gallagher, “we know how to throw a party”! So we thought a Friday Five of essential ingredients for a top birthday party was just too good to miss. 1. Guests Overrated if you ask me, but apparently a party on your own isn’t [...]
Brass Friday five: comebacks
After a short hiatus, the Friday Fives are back! So what better topic for this week’s edition than ‘comebacks’? 1. John Travolta As leather clad, shiny-haired Danny in Grease, Travolta made many a teenager’s heart strings twang in his youthful heyday. My poor arithmetic skills can be attributed solely to the hours I spent gazing [...]

Brass Friday five: funnies
Blue Monday – apparently the most depressing day of the year, when we’re all completely broke, the weather’s cold and dark, there are no bank holidays on the horizon and Christmas is but a distant memory. And because it’s so much fun, the media have decided that this year we should have not one, but [...]
Brass Friday five: words
Words: they’re dead good, aren’t they? Especially for talking and writing and that. This week we’ve been thinking about words a little more than usual, after the Express reported on the publication of a new book entitled ‘OK: The Improbable Story of America’s Greatest Word’. (The word OK started life as part of a fad [...]
