Stunning view while working

My job takes me to all types of properties, in all types of locations. However, it’s always nice fitting Blinds with stunning views through the windows, as here in Rock End in Torquay. This job entailed replacing 10 Vertical headrails, as the customer loved the fabric, but it is no…

UK’s smallest city

On our recent holiday in South West Wales we visited the city of St Davids. Apparently the smallest city in the UK, both by population and size. By far the biggest building is the cathedral, a stunning building with the ruins of the Bishop’s palace next door. Both being over…
