Robb58 (talk) 16:59, 30 January 2008 (UTC) Robb Williams was born near St Austell in Cornwall, but was soon, along with his family, relocated to Birmingham. As a child he developed his passion for Art and, after doing a Foundation course at Bournville School of Art, went on to gain a degree in illustration at Maidstone College of Art. Whilst there he started a punk band with his friend Martin Handford (later to become better known as the creator of "Where's Wally") on vocals. Although not always the most melodic of bands(!), it rekindled his other passion - creating music.

Throughout the 1980's Robb played, composed and arranged for a number of bands and singers including a long stint with the Birningham based band De Stijl. In 1992 Robb created his first theatrical score for the aclaimed one man show, Henry V - Lion of England. Later that year he co-founded the award winning Maverick Theatre company with Nick Hennegan. Robb's ability to create music to a deadline led to many commissions from TV and production companies for advertising and documentary soundtracks. In 1996 Robb met Natalie and, a year later, moved back to his native Cornwall where they married, resurrected his artistic career and started a family.

When Robb first started to hear things about something called Cosmic Ordering, he was intrigued by the notion of placing an order to the cosmos for things you desire. He searched the web to find out more on the subject and wondered if there was somewhere that you could place online Cosmic orders. He found a couple of sites which offered a facility for online ordering, but they either charged for the service or published the details of the order and the poster's email address on their site. Convinced that people shouldn't have to pay or have their privacy compromised, Robb started The Cosmic Ordering Form, a site where multiple Cosmic orders can be placed without a charge and in total confidentiality. The site soon started to gain momentum and eventually Barbel Mohr, the creator of the cosmic ordering phenomenon, contacted Robb to express her approval.
