Just like Mr Miyagi's repeated wax on wax off, it's been window on window off here on the four dormers to allow all the Color Coat Urban panels to be folded into the openings. It's felt like going backwards to go forwards taking out the glass openers and frames, but as well as the fitters being busy... Continue Reading →
I love a good property based storm in a teacup, appropriate this week as we're told that's all Ed uses this rentalesque space for, despite it appearing to all intents and purposes like, um, a fully fitted kitchen. I feel a bit sorry for him to be honest, having such poor PR advice, because none of... Continue Reading →

Not that the wall would have been boring mind, constructed with beautiful, character filled reclaimed red... Continue Reading →
It's rare to have both brain and belly fed at the same time but I'm delighted to say that very thing happened to me this weekend. It was a dismal rainy Sunday, perfect for visiting the all new Whitworth Art Gallery after it's recent renovation. Even on an afternoon off I can't stay away from... Continue Reading →
