In the depths of Winter, its easy to let your mind drift off to warmer climes. And what better place than California?

I've been to San Francisco twice; once when I was 4, and again in April 2012. All I remember from the first visit was nauseous taxi rides up and down roller coaster-like roads, so on my second visit I wanted to accomplish a bit more.

If you're a fan of film, video games and design, San Francisco is the place to be. Here's my top tips!

The Jigsaw Trust

When we re-fitted our studio this Summer, we had quite a lot of excess furniture. Rik discovered The Jigsaw Trust, a charity and school for people with autism based locally in Cranleigh, Surrey.

We decided to donate our spare desks and chairs to Jigsaw, and they sent us a cute artwork card to say thank you. We're pleased to hear that the furniture is being used in their Art rooms, and has gone to a really worthy cause.
