Phew - I was right!
Yesterday I was hedging my bets against the odds as I went back to my home county of Northumberland. I performed at a community street celebration as the headlining act on a trailer stage - very new for me.Yes I was terrified about how my show would be recieved by this kind of event audience, mine is the kind of show you have to sit, watch and listen to - I didn't know if this was going to happen. But heck it did and the show went down extremely well.
The highlights for me were meeting some amazing people from my home county and showing them what little ol' me has been up to while I've been traveling around the place.
However it was the finale of the show that had me most nervous. I attempted something that I haven't done in this way before - you see on Wednesday I had a grilling from the Sunday Sun newspaper. During the interview I showed the lovely journalist lady that I had written a prediction and she watched me seal the envelope and then signed the seal herself. Following that I took the envelope to a group of people in the Ashington community who were to guard the envelope, as well as signing it to make sure I couldn't switch it or do anything 'funny' with it.
So Thursday and Friday I was extremely nervous as the time grew near and the headlines I thought would appear on those days were completely diferent. Then on Saturday when the young man who was in charge of the envelope confirmed his signature and the seal of the envelope were still in tact, and that no one has been permitted any kind of access to it - he opened the envelope and took out a piece of paper that had my own mangled handwriting (i try hard) describing the headlines in that very day's Journal Newspaper.
I stood and looked really cool on the outise, but inside I was doing the Hamster Dance.
Anyway, that is yesterday's update - speak tomorrow!!

Slap My Wrists - I've Been Naughty
Yesterday I neglected you. I'm sorry. However to make up for it there are a bunch of things I am going to do - including a little joke that tickled me this morning.Before all of that - why was I absent from this blog yesterday? Well I was performing at a meeting in the beautiful Aukland Castle in the north east of England at a networking event. Not only did the show go down well, there were a lot of people interested in having me perform at their own staff events. I impressed myself.
Now I have been promising a review of my trip to Jersey. So I'll make start right now. The trip was booked through Expedia - and I can tell you that I will never book another trip through them again so long as I live. It was terribly organised and communication was a word from Mars as far as they are concearned. At every point of contact, communication breakdown held us back from being able to enjoy our trip.
Not one for complaining without just cause here is what happened. Fist of all, we pre-booked (through Expedia) a car-parking space at Newcastle International Airport. This was to save time on the day. So along we drove to our local airport (which I frequent with considerable regularity) and after wandering round the car parks in search of an attendant 2 of them shook their head not knowing what our paper work had to do with them. Not a clue. Only to eventually find out that we had been booked in to a car park a MILE down the road from the Airport. Now that IS useful with a bunch of people with heavy cases.
Eventually we get tot he airport, check in and get a morgage out on a sausage sandwich from the 'restaurant' in the departure lounge. Board the plane, take-off, flight and landing were perfect and stunning views from the windows of the plane were giving us the message that things were about to be tranquel. How absolutely wrong could we have been?
On arrival at the airport our instructions from Expedia were that a driver of a transfer bus would be standing with our names on a card. Well, no that was not the case at all. In fact when one of our party approached the desk to find out more information he gave us the coach number which we started throwing our cases on too - only when double checking to find out this was going no-where near where we needed to be.
A little while later a taxi pulled in saying that he was our transfer. So not only was he not waiting for us (we laded on-time) with a card with our name on, he wasn't a coach at all but a cab.
Off we went to the hotel - what was in store for us there? Its a 4 star place, surely its got to be good? We pulled up and the Radisson SAS looked lovely, perfectly located on the sea front and a really nice modern building with an enourmous aquarium in reception. But I've never been anywhere where the concierge(s) doesn't speak to you or welcome you to the hotel. Instead he is too busy standing around looking creepy - but essentially doing nothing.
Checking in was an entertainment in itself. On booking the trip (yes, all through expedia) two rooms were booked. A double room and a 3 person room - a double bed and a single. Radisson said they knew nothing about it and attempted to enforce an additional charge which equated to almost £100 on top of what was already paid. With some gentle persuasion and looks of 'i'm goign to wrap the bed around your face' the room was sorted at no additional charge. Good times.
From then on we had a good time and learned important lessons like 'the staff at the Radisson will give you wrong information at every turn' for example we wanted to visit the castle. We asked how we get to it and were told the tide was in and so needed to get a boat. Which was fine. We were also told that it was open until six, which was good because it was now quarter to 5.
So we went to the crossing area, and lo and behold the tide was out, waaay out. So we walked across the causeway. It was a nice little walk, warm, surrounded by rock pools and a castle in the distance. Arriving at the castle at 5:02 we were turned away as it had already closed. The hotel had been wrong on both accounts.
One last thing that was just icky about the experience before we get on to what we LOVED about the trip, was the breakfast. The food was amazing. Really great selections of hot and cold, traditional and continetal and a help-yourself deal which is perfect for fussy eaters like myself. What we didn;t expect in any hotel (and a 4 star for that matter) was to have to wait in line for breakfast because the reastaurant wasn't big enough to cater for the number of guests staying in the hotel. Maybe they haven;t heard the words Feasibility Survey before.
So complaints aside (I feel better now), Jersey was lovely. They have a great landscape, some really amazing food - we had Indian, traditional, Italian and Tex-Mex which was all superb. It is a great island with some phenomenal scenary. Gory Bay is a really great place that we all wish we could have spent more time in. A large bay with no commercialism, just natural rocks and sea. Stunning. Also the Lengends Park where you can go-kart and play golf, as well as seeing the story of Jersey 3D show - which was damn impressive.
Well, that was Jersey. A great time which was spoiled by bad communication at almost every turn. We live and learna nd never let stuff like that hinder our enjoyment, its somethign to laugh at and a story to tell forever more, isn't it.
Okay - so here is a joke that tickled me this morning:
A very loud, unattractive, uncouth woman walked into Tesco with her two kids, yelling obscenities at them all the way through the entrance.
The Tesco Greeter said pleasantly, "Good morning and welcome to Tesco. Nice children you have there. Are they twins?"
The woman stopped yelling long enough to say, "No they ain't! The oldest one's 9 and the other one's 7. Why the hell would you think they're twins? Are you blind, or just stupid?"
"I'm neither blind nor stupid, Ma'am," replied the greeter. "I just couldn't believe someone would sleep with you twice.
Have a good day and thank you for shopping at Tesco
Have a great day, I'm performing at a street party tomorrow and will report back after the fact.Kennedy
No Glam - Just Me
Today I am not feeling so good. All the shows, interviews and things are starting to take their toll. I am taking the renainder of today to rest, I will try and blog tomorrow about the trip to Jersey and the show I have at Aukland Castle in the afternoon. I'm going to need to chill out and get some energy between now and then.Thanks for your support - banana of the week is to be announced tomorrow I'm hoping to keep that on schedule for you.
Cheers,
Kennedy

I Get Home and I Get Impressed
Hello, it's late I know and I am a tired young man. We've had an excellent time in Jersey over the past few days, stayed in a Hotel, went to the zoo, saw a 3D history of Jersey show and ate like kings. I'm to tired right now to go in to the details but tomorrow I will start reviewing what was hot and what was not (namely the weather).Before we go in to that I have GOT to tell you about this...I think I have pretty much been there and seen most things when it comes to online marketing, making money, ebay and things like that - just when I thought it had all been done, one of my closest friends came along and blew me away.
Someone I've known since I was knee-high to a grasshopper emailed me today to tell me about something he is doing and I am so impressed by the originality and creativity of it that I thought I should stop worshiping myself for a second and share it with you.
Basically, Rob Temple is best known as one of the top hypnotists in the world, but what the heck does he do during the day before his shows? The answer, he sits on his balcony and runs various internet businesses, and does it successfully. He is a very switched on guy to say the least. So what was it that impressed me so much today that I had to write about it here?
Well as I said, Rob is switched on when it comes to the ways of the web, and knows how to make a good living from it. He emailed me to say that in the next few days he is going to let people follow him by live camera feeds as he makes 10k in 30 days. Literally following his every mouse click to making his living. Whats amazing about this is that viewers can then copy his exact strategy to doing the same thing. THAT is extremely creative and I tip my hat to the man.
In fact, here is a link in case you are interested in getting involved in this genius ideas, and of course make some money on at the same time. Click here. From what I can see it is starting in the next few days and there are only a few places.
Anyway, do check it out, Rob is a sound guy who has a lot to give...I'm looking forward to finding out how it goes, see his processes and see how I can improve on them to turn that 10k in to a heck of a lot more. Its a great challenge to set yourself anyway isn't it?
So...that is something that impressed me today.Tomorrow I have a billion things to do, a show on Thursday and Saturday and then flying to Barcelona on Thursday next week to perform 5 shows means I have a lot of prep to be doing. I do hope you're well and I will start the reviews of Jersey tomorrow.
Apologies again for the late posting!
Kennedy
p.s Rob Temple's 10k in 30 days site is here.
p.p.s. he is a personal friend so please do support him.

A Creative Morning
I had a creative spat this morning. Not usually one for poetry at all but I hope you enjoy what I scribbled in the creative hours of this morning."I love the feeling of her hands on my body,
I feel useful until she puts me to one side,
Leaving me on the sofa.
Until, until I roll down the back and disappear.
That's when I know I'm needed.
I know because she acts as though she can not live without me,
I hear her shouting, searching and getting mad."
I have no idea where it came from, what on earth am I talking about? If you have any idea post your thoughts in the comments below. Anyway I am off to the wee island of Jersey this weekend. I will speak to you on Monday - and in case you're struggling I'll reveal the answer then too :)

On Radio in Newcastle This Morning
I was asked back to the BBC Radio Newcastle studios this morning to appear on the Mike Parr breakfast show for the 4th time.On today's talk show type phone-in we discussed arranged marriages and cultural differences as well as the apparent proposal for Newcastle City Council to erect a massive screen at the bottom of Northumberland Street. Today's show was very little about me and mostly about the issues at hand, but of course it was my opinion that they were interested in and so bringing a new way of thinking about things to the table is what I did.
I used my creative juices to see how we could look at things a little differently. Then something happened, something we could not expect. Imagine you're a young Caucasian male sitting in the studio with a female guest who is from Pakistan and a text is received that reads something to the jist of 'while you're in our country you should live under our rules or go back to your own country'.
Shocked and appalled my co-guest blurted out in anger that it was 'bollox' and we had to calm her down. Of course I had to voice my opinion, which is 'you can not possibly say that. The world is a much smaller place now, we can jump on a plain and within a day be on the other side of our planet. Similarly, saying that if you dont like ti 'go home' just will not wash because that is like saying when we go on holiday to Spain we should ONLY be eating local food and not a single English dish should pass our lips.
It just goes to show that you never quite know what to expect.
That said I did meet a really cool young guy who is a fellow entrepreneur. He too has been self employed since the age of 14 and now at just 17 is giving money away to charity. I very much hope that we will remain in touch as from our chats this morning we seem to have a lot in common. I'll keep you informed about how it flourishes - let me tell you they would be god-ugly kids.
So now I'm just making some last minute arrangements before I head of to Jersey.
More tomorrow!
Listen to Me
Good afternoon, I hope that you're very well. I've been up since 6am, this morning I was invited along to visit Network North, a business networking group in the North East of England. The group is very lively, you would never think that it was THAT time of the morning. Before the business day starts on a Thursday, these keen entrepreneurs get up and share business. Lovely.Quick announcement, tomorrow morning between 8:30 and 9:30am I will be on the Mike Parr Breakfast Show on BBC radio Newcastle which you can listen to on 95.4fm if you're in the region and if you're not you can listen live online. On the show I'll be discussing the papers and sharing my views on topical subject matter - how mature!

Blowing Cold
Yesterday I started talking about how we do silly things that make no sense because of a belief our mind holds. Here is another example of this kind of response. I am sure you have either done it yourself, or know someone who has - blown on an ice cream. You've put it in your mouth and it's too cold so you blow on it. WHY? Because our brains get confused and find it very difficult to determine the difference between extreme heat and extreme cold. That makes sense because we know that we can receive burns from both extremes.A few months back we were in Belfast and visited the W5 Interactive Discovery Centre. Among the motion activated dinosaurs who follow you around the room, seemingly watching your every step there was an incredible experiment related to this very phenomenon of temperature. There were 4 rows of metal bars. 2 of them were moderately warm, the other two were cold. However if you place your hand across the two of them it felt VERY hot. That said, it could never burn you. VERY interesting.
In my shows I use these quirks of the mind to my advantage, hence I am sharing them with you here. Anyway, I hope that you are well. Tomorrow I will be making an announcement that i think you will enjoy. Speak then!

1 Big Reason We're all Stupid
We all do silly things, things without a reason and often we try and create a reason after the fact to satisfy our rational minds. We've all heard the example of cutting yourself and then it's not until you realise and see the blood that you begin to feel the pain. That's a common one, but another example of a silly thing we do for no reason is something I did just this afternoon.
I was making some lunch and decided to cook sausage casserole (lovely!!). I pre-head the oven - domesticated man alert!!! - and layed the sausages on a metallic tray. The oven was at the right temperature so a put on the oven gloves, opened the oven door and lifted the sausages in to the oven before closing the door and setting the timer. Seem logical to you? It did to me and then I thought - DOH, I'm so stupid. And perhaps you've done this too?
WHY on earth did I wear oven gloves to lift the sausages IN to the oven. The tray and sausages were cold so there was absolutely no reason what-so-ever to do that, I just did it without thinking.
The real reason is probably something to do with the fact our minds connect 'oven' with heat and that with 'burning' and pain. So it is an automatic muscle response to adorn the gloves.
Interesting how our minds work really, and it always happens when we relax and aren't thinking about it.
Have a great day,
Kennedy

There's a Banana on my Blog!

What?? There really is a banana on my blog right here but what the heck has that got to do with anything? Well, my favorite scent in the world is Pineapple but my favourite fruit is the banana so I want to find the nicest looking banana! Am I crazy? Have I lost the plot? Am I smoking something that I shouldn't be? Yes, I'm crazy and I probably lost the plot a while ago but no I haven't been smoking anything, ugh I don't wanna smell like a dirty old ashtray!
Introducing: Banana of the Week! THIS is what it's all about. I want you to send me your pictures of bananas, and each week I'll judge the best banana and stick it up as Banana of the Week. The pic will come along with a link to your blog, website, myspace or whatever. It starts right now and you can email your bananas to banana@mindofkennedy.co.uk - PLEASE don't send any other mail, photos of anything other than bananas, nothing rude or anything else either to that email address - just your bananas and your website/blog address!

A Change of Mind
Good afternoon. Sunny skies with a nice cool breeze here in the north of England. Working on a few projects at the moment, as soon as they confirm I'll announce them - don't want to curse them before they're ready. Tonight will be doing something that I haven't done in a long while. I've been asked to perform a comedy hypnosis show.I used to do these but quickly fell out of love. For me hypnosis is about control and the hypnotist feeling controlling and I am not at all interested in that. It's also about making people look stupid - no matter how you sugar coat it, that's what a comedy hypno show does. Which is something else I am against. However in the light of boredom and that fact Ive been requested specifically I will grin through it and give everyone a good time this evening I hope.
In the show tonight we can expect to see people forgetting things like their names and then me replacing those memories with false information. Which is not too humiliating and still falls under my Master of the Mind title - so its a little bit out of my comfort zone, hey ho if we don't step outside then what is the point?
Recently I have had a bunch of enquiries from people who were afraid to book my regular show through a fear that I would hypnotise people. So I have had some changes made on the website to reflect that I don't hypnotise anyone at all usually.
Tomorrow there will be No blog but on Monday I will reflect on how tonight goes and FINALLY explain the banana!
You have a great weekend,
Kennedy

No News is Good News...

You've heard the saying that no news is good news. This is not the case for the frequent blogger. I have no news and nothing worthy of your time to blog about. So yes, you have just wasted your time reading this and I'm sorry.
The only thing that did happen today was I had to go to see the nurse to have her pulse some water in to my ears. When I thought my hearing was back to normal we had revenge of the super wax. Almost total deafness. Today's appointment was half successful too.
I was pretty nervous because there is a risk of permanent damage to the ear drum when your ears are syringed - aka you can end up totally deaf. My right ear was a roaring success and I can hear absolutely everything - the left ear however decided that it didn't want to play the game. The wax is holding fast to the inside of my skull, sexy! So I'm back to see the nurse in a fortnight.
There you have it, glamor and glitz! Btw the image is just for me to show off that resort in Crete a bit more!
More tomorrow,
Kennedy
Photo Evidence and a Mummy

Good afternoon. I'm back with another blog post. Instead of a video today I decided to share some photos with you. The one to the left is of me standing next to the private pool in Crete where I was working last week. It's a hard job, but someone's got to do it.
I have to say that Thomson have really got it spot on with their phenomenal new Sensatori resort in Heraklion, Crete.
So what kinds of things have I been up to? Last night we went to see the new movie 'The Mummy - The Curse of the Dragon Emperor' at the cinema - I LOVE the cinema! The movie was pretty good, it was a little bit of a let down when compared to something like the new Indiana Jones movie which was spectacular. Brendan Frazer and his supporting cast were pretty damn good though.
Fast paced, funny, cheesy the movie is a put your brain in to neutral and stuff you face with over-priced sweets kinda deal. A great night out.
I'm excited to say that lots of changes have been made to my main website, some layout things, some wording too, there's new clients added to the Client page and a brand new contact has appeared on the Contact Us page. Cliff Edwards is officially on board as my PR and Press man which means he can take care of all that kind of stuff...hoorah!
Anyway, that is pretty much it for today, tomorrow there shall be more and I might even explain why that banana popped up...I miss that banana but it shall be back soon!

Well hi there, its a miserable day here. What a shame.Yesterday I said that I'd explain the banana...well I think I'm going to leave you hanging on for just a little while longer.
Things at Kennedy towers are going well, very busy and that is the way I like it. The main thing I am focusing on at the moment is the I Need Your Help article I wrote at the beginning of this month. We have over 50 unique posts now and they are still growing which is fantastic! So cheers for that. Please do keep passing it on to your friends. In fact - as soon as it reaches 100 unique posts (we can track if its just the same person posting over and over again) I'll explain the banana.
I have to say the banana is something that excites me. It only came to me yesterday and I stuck it straight up there. I think you will enjoy it when I announce exactly what that's about.
So HOW can we get more people to participate in I Need Your Help? Here are a few ways you can make it happen:
> Tell people on facebook, myspace and all your other networks
> Copy the page link and send it to your mates on MSN and via email
> You see those little buttons along the bottom of this message? If you click on those and submit this site to Digg and other bookmarking sites that would be AMAZING!
Just a few ideas, use your head...how else could people spread the word about this? Stick your ideas of how we can spread the word below!
More tomorrow (and remember if its over 100 I'll explain the banana - it's important!)

5 Stars, 2 Flights and One Island
Hello there, I haven't forgotten about you I promise.At the beginning of the month I did say that from now on things would be a bit more hectic and it seems that the madness has already commenced. What has been happening?
Well on Wednesday I went to the Edinb. Festival, where I saw some excellent shows and enjoyed catching up with some friends. It was on that day it was confirmed that I'd be flying to Crete the following day.
So early hours of Thursday morning (4am) I left my house and headed for Newcastle Airport. I picked up my one-way ticket to Crete (yes that's right one-way which terrified me) and checked my bags in.
The journey out was perfect, I got some money exchanged in the airport and all was well.
On arriving in Crete the temperature was 32 degrees, with a lovely breeze so I didn't fry. A taxi to the resort. And oh my lord is this a stunning new resort that Thomsons have built. (head to this link and prepare to be jealous) 5 Star, private pools, food and drink galore. It's a holiday maker's paradise. Add to that the fact they are flying in top class acts from around the world for both adult and children's entertainment - the team there really know what they're doing and they are delighting customers night after night.
The journey home was a nightmare. Heralion airport is not the most organised and I was flying home not to Newcastle, but to Manchester. So after an hour's delay on the return flight then 4 and a half hours in the air I arrive at Manchester and try to book a hotel. Its an interesting game to play on a Friday evening in a big city. So i played that for a while before finding a nearby Travel Lodge - classy ;).
So rather than getting home Friday night as I'd hoped, I didn't get across the threshold of my front door until late Saturday. By which time Kennedy wasn't feeling on top form. So i took the rest of the day off and Sunday too - hence the lack of bloggage. I didn't think you'd want me to inflict by terrible mood on you on Saturday as some of my words may have offended.
So that is what is happening, I am awaiting photographs of me in the heat from my new friend Marc who has promised to send them over to me and as soon as he does I'll get them up here for you to snarl at.
Anyway, while i've been recovering the "I Need Your Help" post has been getting a lot of attention and we now have almost 50 comments on it. So if you haven't yet participated, it takes literally one minute please go here now.
Tomorrow I'll do a video blog, I promise.
Kennedy
p.s. yes I was infuriated when I was sitting in departures at Newcastle Airport and realised I'd left my camera at home. So no blog from Crete, I shed a tear.
Far Away Today
Well hello there,I hope that you are extremely well. Today I'm off to Crete, where I am performing this evening for Thomsons at one of their exclusive resorts.
The past few days have been absolutely crazy, Edinb Festival yesterday where I enjoyed some incredible performances and now I'm way above the clouds to one of the little Greek Islands.
When I get home tomorrow I will hopefully be uploading a video from Crete itself so you can share in the sunshine...now just you watch it rain. That's fate for you. I'm not sure if i believe in fate, maybe i believe in balance and that when you put something positive out there it finds it ways back to you.
As you know, I'm not a spiritual kind of person but it's worth thinking about. Perhaps it just feels nicer to be nice. I know that if im feeling down I smile and start being nice to people and it doesn't take long for that niceness to infect me and i become positive myself.
Anyway, that's all for today. Have a think about being nice and I will speak to you tomorrow. Take care.
Kennedy

13. Added the date stamp to the top of each post.
It's unusual isnt it that no one could think of any differences, i have a few emails from people saying "i know it's changed but I just cant put my finger on WHAT changed". In tomorrow's video I'll be talking about WHY this mental phenomenon occurred and give you some real life demonstrations of things you just WONT remember.
ALSO, I'd love to know about your blog, post a comment below with a description and link to your blog and spread the word!
Until tomorrow,
Kennedy

Spot the Difference Competition
Soooo...later today I'll be recording a video and sticking it up here. But before I do that I wondered what you thought of the adjustments? Over the weekend we did some home improvements, DIY type things on the blog to make it a that little bit fresher and easier to use.So today I'd like you to comment on a game of:
Spot the Difference
You'd be amazed at just how much information your mind stored about the blog as it was before. So let's see who can list the most differences, changes and alterations. Yes there's a prize too...I'll tell you about it in a moment.
This morning I made a number of changes to the blog, list as many as you can recall and we'll see who gets the highest level of accuracy.
The prize is if you pay the postage (80p) I'll send you a copy of my DVD.
So how many differences can you spot? Remember other people may list incorrect answers, GOOD LUCK!
Kennedy
p.s. I'll announce the answer and winner at 12:00midday (GMT) tomorrow.
Sundays of Change
Good afternoon!I just realised that something I thought I had announced on the blog - I actually haven't. So here it is. I will be posting a video blog every other day, and a regular written blog in between times, so a blog a day will feature right here. With ONE EXCEPTION - Sundays. Sundays will be family time so I won't be posting a blog, so this is the last blog on a Sunday.
Hope you're well...video blog tomorrow - brownie's honour.
Kennedy
p.s I am in need of your comments for some research for my act here.

I Need Your Help

Hello,
It's the weekend and I have a few shows to get to but before I shoot off to them I wondered if you could help me out with something. I am working on a new routine for my show but I need some research to make it work, and this is where you can help.
The Experiment
I want to know if there is a correlation between how you look, and what value of currency you carry in your pockets. I know it sounds insane, but I think this would be so cool if I could know statistically how much a person is likely to have in their pockets, and what's more you can use this too.
Where YOU Come In
I need to collect as much information on this as possible. It will be anonymous and you dont have to register for anything at all...in the comments below this post (no signing up just type) write down:
1. Your gender
2. Your hair Colour
3. Eye Colour
4. Star Sign
5. The values of the bank NOTES you have on you, in your wallet or purse right now. I dont mean the total I mean like 1x£5, 2x£10 and 1x£20 notes. So i can see the actual notes you carry with you. I hope that makes sense.
Important
Since this is a genuine survey from which the results will be used remember:
1. You can NOT be identified, traced or anything.
2. You MUST be truthful otherwise it just wont work.
3. We need as many people as possible so pass the link on to your friends on facebook, myspace, msn, bebo and wherever you can.
Thank you...and remember, I will post the results so we can all use them!
Kennedy
We need a lot of results, so please share it with the world:
