A seriously good and funny website - some adult language

"...a huge organic network of artisans and creative individuals"

"The West Midlands remains the nation's firebox of creativity, diversity and industry and doing Spaghetti has confirmed for me that this region is constantly being defined and redefined by a huge organic network of artisans and creative individuals..."

"Just as it was in the days of the Industrial Revolution and before, from the plays of Shakespeare to the steam engines of James Watt... the real assets of the West Midlands are the thoughts and ideas of it's people"

"Everywhere you turn, whether suburb, town or village ...an artistic entrepreneur pops their head out of the modern day equivalent to the old workshop"

"But nowadays the workshops are people's front rooms or high rise flats and they use computers instead of anvils"

Pete Millington (Editor of Spaghetti Gazetti)

Welcome to Spaghetti Gazetti

From the Editor on a Vespa Pete Millington

Spaghetti as metaphor for diversity

"... my use of the term spaghetti derives from the infamous motorway inter section at the heart of the West Midlands used as a metaphor for cultural diversity across the region - we are all separate strands of the bigger plate of spaghetti - I've heard other metaphors used for diversity such as the melting pot and the mosaic, but I like the idea of a plate of spaghetti as it retains the individual components, like the ceramic pieces of the mosaic whilst having the feel of fluidity and the intermingling nature of the melting pot.

Each individual strand is perfect but together the overall effect is scrummy delicious"
