OFF THE CLOCK

OFF THE CLOCK

Two sports, one habit. Turn up, be useful, and then start quietly redesigning something nobody asked you to redesign.

Sport is where most of my volunteering, photography, design and club systems work ends up. It is also the only part of my life where somebody blows a whistle at me, which is probably good for me.

THE POINT

Neither of these is my job. Both of them have taught me more about systems, people and doing things properly than most things that are.
