    @DeanVipond TERRIBLE! :) We can continue to tweak things (I’ve been doing it all afternoon.)

    @iamdanw @frankieroberto I was also interested in the amount of people, street furniture, advertising etc in reality vs early renders.

    @frankieroberto @iamdanw Yes, but comparing the finished thing with the renderings.

    @morningporch Thanks! Sometimes I wonder if they’re too big, but I think you’re right about it being a nicer read.

    I gave pepysdiary.com a lick of paint, with the help of @DeanVipond. It took me two years to get round to finishing it.

    @iamdanw Oi, that’s my idea! Not that I’m going to do it, of course.

    @JennieAdamson @GievesLondon Ooh, that’s lovely. I really like the lapels and the hidden zip pocket too!

    @beekernortham WHO ARE YOU? I always thought I might move back, but it's been nearly 20 years now…

    @beekernortham @markcridge I don't think I knew that. I lived in Redland, Clifton, Southville during and after university.
