We’ve moved - officially
2 September, 2008
We’ve spent the last two months working out of two different offices. Now after much lugging of furniture (and gravel) we’re settled in our new place.
We took the decision a few months ago to move PD towers closer to home. In fact about 10 metres away from home. Why? Well we realised that we were spending far too much time at the office and not finding any time to do the important things like eat properly, exercise and catch up with friends. We also realised how much clutter we’d acquired and wanted to move towards a paper free office.
After a mooch around at our options, and a lot of inspiration from Alex’s Shedworking Blog we settled on a contemporary new office building from The Garden Escape.
When we moved here there was about a tonne of gravel next to the house – which we had to move to the top of the garden when we had the decking done (and thanks to Tim who not only put the decking together but also discovered that the back wall was floating and needed underpinning). Of course the new office was due to be built at the top of the garden meaning we had to move the gravel again – to the middle of the garden.
The team from The Garden Escape turned up – assembled the office, plastered it, painted it, wired it and did a superb job – a really friendly team and hugely professional – we highly recommend them. All that was left for us to do was move in and then… move the gravel again.
Already we can see the huge difference it’s made to our working day – I’m likely to go on about it quite a bit – sorry.

Yeah – I’m going to quite miss having to spend weekends moving small stones around the garden. How will I fill the time? :)

The office looks fab – and you’ve obviously not killed the bamboo in the multiple gravel-moving operations – well done!
