the Do lectures
The idea is a simple one.
That people who Do things, can inspire the rest of us to go and Do things too.
So each year, we invite a set of people down here to come and tell us what they Do.
They can be small Do’s or big Do’s or just plain amazing extraordinary Do’s. But when you listen to their stories, they just light a fire in your belly to go and Do your thing, your passion, the thing that sits in the back your head each day, just waiting, and waiting for you to follow your heart.
To go find your cause to fight for, your company to go start, your invention to invent, your book to write, your mountain to climb.
The one thing the Doers of the world Do, apart from Do amazing things, is to inspire the rest of us to go and Do amazing things.
They are fire-starters.

Sounds a bit like TED, but run from Wales, by (indirectly) a clothing company that makes up about 70% of my wardrobe. It’s all about ideas, but about DOing the ideas, not just thinking them.
Speakers include Tim “4 hour work week” Ferriss, Andy Cummins and Russell Davies. They are also downloadable as MP4′s, so I can watch/listen on my iPhone. Yay!
BTW, I had an old beta of Flash 10 which caused these to crash – either killing Firefox (boo, hiss) or just showing a broken plugin icon in Chrome (yay!). A quick update to the latest Flash fixed it.
It was a great event – superb people, speakers, tents and grub! Highlights for me were Tim Ferriss, Trevor Bayliss amongst others.
Best,
Jon
Hey Nic,
Saw the mail from Howies myself earlier, this stuff is very good indeed. I too have a (what some might consider a little too ) large amount of Howies stuff in the wardrobe. Their clothes rock as does their ethos.
Hope you’re well. Dan.
