In today's episode of LID Radio, we're joined by Neil Francis, the author of The Creative Thinking Book: How to ignite and Boost Your Creativity. We talk about his book and the different inhibitors blocking our creative thinking. About Neil Francis Neil Francis is an entrepreneur with extensive experience in digital and software technology. He is the author of four other self-development books, including Positive Thinking (LID). About The Creative Thinking Book Creative thinking is about finding a way of looking at problems or situations from a fresh perspective, and then to conceive of something new or original. A creative person has clever and original ideas, and that all starts with firing up your imagination. It's through your imagination that you produce and simulate novel objects and new ideas, images or concepts.    The good news is that everyone is capable of thinking creatively – as human beings, it is within our nature to do so. Through a mixture of anecdotes, stories and practical methods, this book is designed to help you understand what creativity is and how to unleash and apply your inner creativity.   ➡️ Grab a copy: https://lidpublishing.com/book/the-creative-thinking-book/

Our next guest made his start for the Cardiff Devils team in the 92/93 season where he was part of the BHL Championship winning team for two years straight as well as being a Superleague Champion, EIHL KO Cup Champion and two-time EIHL CUP Winner.He has been involved in the off-ice part of Cardiff since hanging up the skates, whether that be in the Assistant Coach role or the Director of Hockey Operations. In July he was named to the Cardiff Devils all-time team; it is an absolute pleasure to welcome to 4000 and Counting Mr Neil Francis.

El pop americana de la british Jade Bird es una llamada a poder caminar sin peligro por las calles nocturnas, aunque menos problemáticas son los temas pop de Dana Countryman o de los Poppermost (one mand-band, desde Glasgow, Joe Kane) o Tommy Womack, desde Nashville, a medio camino entre The Replacements y Lucinda Williams, abren a los ya conocidos Cloud Eleven, ANC4 o The Reflectors, garajeros y poprockeros. Neil Francis no está muy lejos con sonidos del rock de los 70, ni el rocker Lucky Jones con su excelente straycatada, que nos deja preparados para la roots music, cuando no el mejor country, con bluegrass como en el caso de Mendon Hale o la pegadiza guitarrera de Ray Scott.Jade Bird, I'm Getting LostDana Countryman, Mrs. Sunshine (withTerry Draper)The Poppermost, Egg And ChipsThe Poppermost, Yes It's TrueTommy Womack, I DoCloud Eleven, Extraordinary GirlANC4, I Want to Feel GoodThe Reflectors, All Made UpNeal Francis, Can't Stop The RainLucky Jones, Runaround BluesMendon Hale, East Bound And DownRay Scott, Forgivin' HimSorry, hoy tenemos 15 minutos menos.

South Wales is building back from the pandemic with a raft of industrial start-ups and with leisure operators keen to fill vacant space on the high street, believes Fletcher Morgan associate Matthew Jones. Fletcher Morgan is the highest placed regional independent agency in the Radius On Demand Rankings for South Wales with 338,699 sq ft of space transacted across 40 deals so far this year. Jones, meanwhile, has done the third most individual deals (22) for the whole of Wales, with only Knight Frank's Neil Francis and Mark Sutton having done more. Jones says the office market has been the toughest in living memory but is starting to spring back to life, albeit with occupiers less interested in conventional leases. Small industrial units, meanwhile, are selling in their droves to local occupiers and the industrial estates of South Wales are now high on the priority lists of investment funds. Meanwhile, a variety of leisure occupiers are setting up in the high street, helped by the fact some 20% of the population of Cardiff are students.

The Lions win game 1 of their test series with South Africa. We recap the action and tell you where the Lions got the upper hand. We also discuss the Irish 7s team in the Olympics and the Neil Francis news.

On tonight's episode of The Left Wing, Will Slattery and Luke Fitzgerald are joined by Neil Francis to discuss the Lions' defeat to South Africa A and look ahead to the test series. Warren Gatland's side were beaten by Rassie Erasmus' shadow-Springbok selection in a game that saw the tour really kick into gear. Luke and Neil give their thoughts on the Lions' tactics in attack, as well as weighing in on some of the key selection decisions at out-half and in the centre. Warren Gatland's decision to bring out Marcus Smith instead of Johnny Sexton is also up for discussion too, while the lads also touch on Alun Wyn Jones' remarkable injury recovery that saw him fly to South Africa 18 days after dislocating his shoulder.

In this episode we chat with singer Neil Francis on what pride means to him, that infamous subway incident and his new single. The idiots then grapple with what constitutes an icon and our usual brand of trying to understand just about anything.

On the latest episode of The Left Wing, Will Slattery and Luke Fitzgerald are joined by Neil Francis to look back on Leinster's Champions Cup semi-final defeat and look ahead to the Lions squad announcement. For the third year in a row, Leinster have failed to win back the European Cup - this time losing to Ronan O'Gara's La Rochelle side. Luke picks out the areas he thinks cost Leinster the game, while Neil thinks that the influence of La Rochelle second row Will Skelton was crucial in the outcome. The lads debate whether the weakness of the PRO14 has hindered Leinster's chances in Europe and look at how Ross Byrne fared in the absence of Johnny Sexton. On the Lions squad, Neil thinks that Sexton could miss out on selection and explains why he misses Warren Gatland since his departure as Wales head coach.

On this week's episode of The Left Wing, Will Slattery and Luke Fitzgerald are joined by Neil Francis to react to CJ Stander's shock retirement and discuss all the latest Six Nations news. The lads kick things off with a discussion on the back row's surprise announcement, with Neil saying that he doesn't think Stander will stay retired, and could potentially join up with one of the South African franchises after he returns home. Luke pays tribute to Stander's service to Irish rugby, but has mixed feelings over his decision to step away. In terms of on-pitch action, Luke takes a look at Ireland's defensive issues, while the lads discuss Ireland's propensity to kick away turnover ball. England are coming to town for the Six Nations finale on Saturday, and Luke and Neil both offer areas where Ireland must improve if they want to secure an upset victory. However, ultimately, they think Eddie Jones' men will leave the Aviva Stadium with a five consecutive win over Ireland.

On this week's episode of The Left Wing, Will Slattery and Luke Fitzgerald are joined by Neil Francis to discuss Ireland's Six Nations campaign to date. Neil is disappointed by the lack of progress the team has made under Andy Farrell, while Luke is concerned with the team's defence as well as the attack. The lads look back on the defeat to France last weekend, with Neil left very impressed with how Les Bleus are building following the addition of Shaun Edwards. The out-half succession plan is a talking point, with both Luke and Neil very enthusiastic about the potential of Leinster youngster Ciaran Frawley. Neil says that Andy Farrell will be under a lot of pressure if things don't improve and that the IRFU should make a call to Ronan O'Gara at the end of the Six Nations. Scotland's collapse against Wales and England's stuttering form is up for discussion too.

On this week's episode of The Left Wing, Will Slattery and Luke Fitzgerald are joined by Neil Francis to discuss Ireland's Six Nations defeat to England. Luke is disappointed that the pattern of the loss followed along similar lines to Ireland's recent defeats to England, while Neil says that Ireland were outfought by Eddie Jones' side. The form of the Ireland half-backs, Conor Murray and Johnny Sexton is discussed, with Luke saying that he thinks Sexton might be carrying an injury. In terms of changes to the team, Neil says that Leinster back row Rhys Ruddock - who was omitted from the Six Nations squad - is someone who could make a difference for Andy Farrell's men. The French revival, Joey Carbery's latest injury and Eddie Jones' selection decisions are all up for discussion too. the Left Wing is sponsored by Land Rover

An Australian rugby great says part of the job of rugby captain is to put pressure on the refs.A former Irish international is the latest to pen a column attacking the All Blacks at this year's Rugby World Cup, calling the team a group of cheaters who are escaping send offs for free.Former Ireland No.8 Neil Francis took aim at the All Blacks in the Irish Independent, claiming the All Blacks cheat with impunity and such breathtaking cynicism and referees let them do it.Nick Farr-Jones told Simon and Phil says cheats is a strong word. He says if you want to be a good footy player, you have to put pressure on the refs about the decisions they make. LISTEN ABOVE

Ireland have taken their hits so far in this World Cup but the question remains whether they can pick themselves up for the rest of the tournament. On this week's Left Wing, Neil Francis joined Luke Fitzgerald, Fergus McFadden and Will Slattery and as usual, Franno didn't pull any punches. "They look a tired team," says Franno. "The graph is going a particular way and even if they correct it against Samoa, they've got a lot of things wrong. Is it mirroring something? Where are the unforced errors coming from?" While all the panel agree that Ireland are more than capable of beating anyone on their day, no one can see them doing it for a semi or final. "It's a tough space to be in mentally because you have to move on pretty quickly," says Fergus McFadden. "Your'e just hoping Joe is picking their confidence up again because time is of the essence." The panel also lament the continued poor standard of refereeing, whether Joe Schmidt has learned from 2015 and the return to form of the 'veteran' McFadden for Leinster in the Pro14.

Welcome to the inaugural Business Weekly podcast, a podcast rounding up some of the major and most interesting stories of the week on Business News Wales. In this week’s show.. We speak to Professor Dylan Jones Evans about this week’s Newport City Summit.

It's Joe Schmidt's last Six Nations with Ireland and he's sure to want to go out on a winning note, but should one eye be on the World Cup and our chances there? On this week's Left Wing podcast, Will Slattery and Luke Fitzgerald are joined by Irish Independent Rugby Correspondent, Ruaidhri O'Connor, and outspoken columnist, Neil Francis, to look ahead to Ireland's opening clash against England as well our chances of winning the tournament overall. Plus, former Irish international, Fiona Steed, gives the run down on the Irish Womens' Six Nations. The opening games against England on Friday and the clash against France will be their toughest challenges and a top three finish should be Ireland's goal, she tells Will and Luke. One of the main talking points however, is whether Joe Schmidt should be looking to blood new players in the coming weeks with the World Cup year in mind and Luke says he'd rather a drop off in the Six Nations than the World Cup. ‘It's all about the quality of coaches,' says Neil Francis. ‘Joe will figure out how to beat the opposition, even if it takes until the second half against the English.'

Plus there's McViolence, village elders, Germans importing English flair, Ole Gunnar Sunshine and Fergie on journalism.

In Cardiff there has been a long and storied history of larger than life characters, who wore and continue to wear the Devils Crest with pride, and quite literally, fight to keep its honor.

Neil Francis has played with many if not all of them, and in this episode we look to tell their Cardiff Devils story. In part 1: - The early days of the tough guy in Cardiff - Bench Clearances against Nottingham -Ice Clearances against Coventry! - And two of the most famous guys ever to wear the Devils Jersey, Mike Ware and Mike Macwilliam.

Episode 54: Erasure - The Innocents (1988) Part 2 Brian and Sarah return with Classic Pop contributor and all-around good guy Andrew Dineley to discuss side one of this classic 1988 album!  This side may have fewer songs than its flip side, but it is fully packed with hit singles, so along with talk of the music, our intrepid hosts also make time to consider three music videos and three record sleeves.  It's a lot to pack into one episode so forgive them if they go a bit long! Part 3 - Track by Track The Terrific Trio gets to gab about two huge worldwide hits with "A Little Respect" and "Chains of Love."  Andrew reminds Brian and Sarah that in the UK, "Ship of Fools" was also released and did quite well on the singles chart, which causes all sorts of envy and bitterness.  However, the mood is set to right by the lovely story of YouTube sensation Neil Francis - because no one can be depressed after watching him sing "A Little Respect" while waiting for the train!  Let's see, then Sarah and Andrew team up against Brian because he had the audacity to say that he doesn't think "Hallowed Ground" is as catchy a tune as "Chains of Love."  He backtracks on what he said just so they don't turn off his mic.  Man, Sarah usually writes these episode descriptions, but she is away this weekend and I thought it would be easier than this!  Oh!  Did you know that one of the songs on this side of the record was released as a single over twenty years later??  We'll talk about that too so I don't want to give it away here.  A Little Respect Ship of Fools Phantom Bride Chains of Love Hallowed Ground See the videos we discuss here: A Little Respect Ship of Fools Chains of Love Read more at http://www.permanentrecordpodcast.com/ Visit us at https://www.facebook.com/permrecordpodcast Follow us at https://twitter.com/permrecordpod Follow Andrew at https://twitter.com/disheedee

Cardiff stalwart Neil Francis says he cannot truly find the words to describe what it's like to see the Devils win their first Playoff title for 19-years.

On this week's episode of The Left Wing, Will Slattery and Luke Fitzgerald are joined by Irish and Sunday Independent columnist Neil Francis to discuss how the Irish provinces fared in the first weekend of Champions Cup action, and look ahead to this weekend's games. Neil isn't overly pleased with Leinster's performance while Luke thinks that the errors made by Leo Cullen's men can be rectified ahead of Glasgow on Saturday. The lads also discuss JJ Hanrahan's role at Munster, the cynicism on show in their draw against Castres, what Ulster need to do to take the next step, and Warren Gatland's response to Sean O'Brien's Lions criticism.

Neil Francis loves the outdoors. There's nowhere else he'd rather be than stretched out in a field gazing at the sky, with his dog Bouncer by his side. From his front room he can see the hills that he used to play in as a child. But for now, he can't get up them. 25 years ago, an accident left Neil paralysed from the chest down and since then he's had to rely on 24hr care at home. His wheelchair gives him some freedom but it can only take him so far. Uneven paths, muddy fields and steep hills are out of bounds and being trapped in the same position day after day, for over two decades, is taking its toll. His spine is curving and he endures debilitating seizures. Neil needs to find a way out of pain and back into the landscape that he loves. He discovers there's a wheelchair that could help him, but it costs a lot of money - too much money. It doesn't look like he can get it. But then, enter two guardian angels.... Presenter Grace Dent.
