Shall I blame the delay in resuming digital life on the the pram in the hallway? The truth is that the call of the plasterer's float and the siren song of the ski slopes have been overwhelmingly alluring this year. But during those moments of silence I have been mapping out narrative scenarios, imagining storylines and working out how to create mindscapes. On a more prosaic note, I have also started to advise people how to craft and sculpt the information on their websites. If you stand still near me for too long you will probably find yourself skimmed and painted a delightful shade of magnolia.
