A set of adverse circumstances led to an unexpected chance to take some photographs.

There will be more from this session soon, giving you ample time to wash, dry, iron and fold your laundry…

Thank you Lianne, much appreciated! Yes, there’s a middle class story of woe behind this which I’ll get to at the weekend. I was hugely impressed and inspired by this place :-)
