Stupid business ideas dreamed up in the Guggenheim..

First of all, go see the Guggenheim museum in Bilbao - its a great place for thinking. 
These are my 'business' ideas..



1.       Naturalair conditioning on trains (by creating a removable air vent flow system between front and back windows..)
2.       Socialenterprise driving school
3.       Fashion boutique by those with unconventional ideas (eg on the autism spectrum etc)
4.       Counciltax rebates for Mingas (Mingas are public works undertaken by communities in South America - normally annually to sort out roads or drainage etc.)
5.       A modern Guild for community enterprise - what better place than York with its history of Guilds.. 
6.       Taxifirm as social enterprise (they pretty much run as Co-Ops already, so maybe not much point)
7.        Peerto peer volunteer (we're working on this, but no-one has come up with a decent model yet - even timebanking..)
9.       £10canteen for 1 hr lunches. 3 starters, 3 mains & a drink.
10.  Something around Small is Beautiful .

That's it..! But i made me realise strange places produce strange thoughts so i always take a pen and paper to museums now..
