Big thanks to CMRA's organisers for a great day on Saturday- very different from a public exhibition.
Thanks to its new owners I finally got to see Bradfield Gloucester Square and wasn't disappointed
Just watched the farewell programme and feeling incredibly sad and angry at the stupidity of the decision to sell it. On Wednesday I walked around the mostly empty studios and dismantled facilities I used to work in and remembered what an incredibly creative place it was. Rented offices and studios hired from a developer, as in Salford now and Wood Lane in a couple of years, simply won't have the same critical mass.
It is like selling off the Royal Opera House and the National Theatre.
Yesterday, after buying an eye wateringly expensive fragrance for a friend's birthday in the local shopping centre, I saw Tangmere chugging slowly past with its service coach it then reversed and headed briskly towards Old Oak Common- no idea what it was doing there but a real treat.
