In the nick of time
I’ve been wanting to see Juergen Teller’s Woo! exhibition for longer than I can remember. I finally made my way over there last Saturday, on the show’s penultimate day. When I got there I was… Read More
A look to love
Socks & stilettos. Need I say more?

Bakemas has not been forgotten…
…merely its coverage paused due to illness; yuck. Here’s what been happening in the Eco Office while I’ve been away (I think – no, I know - I’ve been sorely missing out). Day… Read More
The 12 Days of Bakemas – we’re half way there
Following on from yesterday, Charlotte, the Eco Office’s PR Guru, crafted Pesto Palmiers (much neater than mine, I must say). Lilly, our buying assistant extraordinaire, whipped up festive-hued “I Have No Ideas” – we… Read More
