I like courage in a brand. Tessy Britton pointed out this brave sweet (yes candy/confectionery) shop in Barcelona:

Highbury 20 years on: Conference on the future of the city centre.
Architect and blogger Joe Holyoak has pulled together a conference to consider the future of the city centre 20 years after the Highbury Conference took a whole range of radical decisions for Birmingham. The flyer is here and a booking form (£40 for the day including lunch) for April 14th is here.
Joe and I are fellow trustees at the Birmingham Conservation Trust and many people will know him for his passionate campaigning for the preserving the human scale of Eastside.
Brum Bloggers Meet. Monday March 31st – Venue Suggestions please
Stef and Charlotte on the facebook group raised the question are we meeting this month, so rather randomly (with some confidence that Pete Ashton will be there) I’ve plumped for March 31st (by the way others are able to use the Facebook group to create meetings).
Hopefully two or three of the Brum folk who went to SXSW will be able to come – allowing us all to chew over what they saw and what is changing in this city.
We need somewhere to meet, ideally in the city centre. Suggestions asap added in the comments section please.
Update: Location sorted thank you. Rooty Frooty – just opposite reception at the Custard Factory. 17 Gibb Street, Digbeth, Birmingham, B9 4AA. (GoogleMaps, MultiMap).
