Posture and Office Seating have a VIP day in the 1865 suite at the City Ground for the Nottingham Forest V Leicester City game on August 20^th. We are looking forward to the day out and the game in particular as we are an East Midlands based company.

Our family has an affinity with Leicester as my boys were born in Leicester General, as we lived in Thurmaston for a few years in the 80’s. Although we are Forest fans first and foremost, I hope it is a good game and we have a great day out.

Joining me are two friends, one a Leeds fan and the other a Macclesfield Town fan. We go to eachothers teams games whenever we can for a day out and some good light hearted banter.

The dangers of sitting for long periods have once again been highlighted recently. Chris Staniforth, 20, played upto 12 hours at his desk playing his gaming console, died from deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in May.

DVT is more infamously associated with long haul travel, but can occur with long periods of inactivity whilst sat at a computer desk.

The South Yorkshire man suffered a blood clot to his left calf, where it moved from to his lungs causing a fatal pulmonary embolism.

We cannot stress how important it is to take regular breaks from your computer desk, whether you are gaming or working.

Let’s hope that tragic Chris’s death serves to shock a few of the more flippant among us and hopefully save some lives.

Well, the rain is well and truly pouring on News Corporations parade as well as all over the UK summer. Care homes operator Southern Cross is on the verge of collapse as their landlord’s desert them in their time of need and councils are cutting back on services across the UK.

The message from the Government is that they want entrepreneurs to drag the country back to its feet. I am not sure how that is going to happen with VAT at 20% and low consumer confidence.

What I do know is, small and large companies alike, are resilient in difficult times. Directors that started the company had drive and determination and bounce back-ability, and those qualities will undoubtedly make their companies thrive in the future. Enduring these setbacks make the victories all the more sweet. Selling just one Mercury MH1 24/7 chair to a small business, means just that, that somebody out there is fighting back and not only needs a new office chair for a new employee but is making a statement of intent.

Even Sir Richard Branson failed once or twice before he became successful. Battling with the banks to fund grand projects became his obsession and he wouldn’t be defeated. Where one venture failed he either tried a different business altogether or a new approach. But the common theme throughout his life has been the determination to succeed. He may have been rebuffed, battered and bruised, but he came charging back from a different angle snarling and kicking. Of course there is more to his success than just determination, Sir Richard has the gift of reading the market and providing a product to meet the need, he has diversified to protect his Virgin empire, and used his own proven business techniques. There has to be a demand, a need for a product or a service for companies to be able to survive.

If the Government want entrepreneurs to get the UK back on its feet, they need to stimulate the market in any way they can to give companies a better chance to succeed, but there is business out there, we just have to be more creative in how we find it.

The sun will come out soon soon enough.

A UK student, Michael Boardman, 19, will attempt a Guinness World Record on 17th June 2011 for the longest distance travelled on an office chair. After reading an office furniture industry study showed an average 12km (7.5miles) was routinely covered by an office chair in one year and student Michael thought he could easily beat that!

- I’ll let you know how he gets on.
