Loads of interesting stuff to buy at ReForm school. I especially like all the re-purposed stuff like the Recycled Street Sign Platter, Billbird House, Electrolux hoover racecar (not cheap!) and the Skateboard Clutch Purses pictured.
Well our house is just about back to normal now that the last of the party has been moped up and cleared away. I did a really shit job of taking pics, only got a few crappy camera phone shots before and after… Hopefully someone might send me some better ones to post later.
Above is my box of wine, Sachi’s keytar & Nicky’s box of Monster & Munch. I think Ahra’s reporter from ‘Harro’ magazine was probably best costume, had working zoom lense on camera and a spring loaded shutter button!
Update: Ah, Yeevon’s took some much better pictures, here’s a selection. I’ve uploaded all of them to my Flickr.
Love these Fox Scarfs made of salvaged wool from LU FLUX. (Flash site so can’t deep link… Look under Wares > Accessories) Bit pricey at £120 though :(
I really like this, a light shade made from a load of old fluorescent tubes, beautiful. Made by Castor Canadensis a Canadian interdisciplinary design outfit.
Fresh Tripe Bikes recondition old bikes and turns them into things of beauty. They have plenty of interesting bits for them too.
Via I Love Dust.
Cookie & Paul are currently walking the 3000 mile long Continental Divide Trail from Mexico to Canada.
Everything about the walk is on the following pages:
1. You can check on our progress here (or below)
2. You can find out more info about the trip here
3. You can sponsor us here
Tracking our progress right across America is no mean feet. Luckily we've had a good deal of help from the kind folks at Nokia, who supplied us with their latest N82 phone with Sports Tracker. It's what we're using to track our route with GPS, take our pictures and write our posts. Finally it's the tool we use to update the blog, whenever we get reception or a wifi area.
Made in England by Gentlemen is a blog written by Cookie, who generally designs websites, draws cartoons, drinks too much, grows a moustache and browses the web for interesting & amusing stuff. But currently the only thing he's doing is walking northwards towards Canada with his mate Paul, if you're not interested in my holiday pics ;) and were hoping for some visual eye candy, may I suggest you check out my girlfriend's blog: Monster-Munch.
