Day 204 – 354
Day 204 – 365 / July 23rd 2015 I was working at Valley Parade today, installing graphics (as per yesterday’s “365” image). They look fab, incidentally, so be sure to cast a glance at the 1911 club and marvel at my handiwork. Whilst there, Bethany (my trusty apprentice for the day) and I popped around…

Day 203 – 365 / July 22nd 2015 A screenshot of my PC for you today. This is what I am working on ahead of installing these graphics tomorrow at Valley Parade. The screen shows the Bradford City FC crest ready to cut in my sign making software. The crest is in reverse as that…
Day 202 – 365
Day 202 – 365 / July 21st 2015 An early image of the day for you this morning. I have been busy working on a graphic to show folk how to measure their heads for caps and trappers. The graphic will be used on our website, which we are currently putting together ahead (sorry, poor…

Day 197 – 365
Day 197 – 365 / July 16th 2015 I spotted this little chap as I returned from a local job lettering a vehicle in Mirfield. I’d just spent the previous three hours applying graphics the both sides, bonnet and rear doors of a Mercedes Sprinter van for a client. The sun was high in the…

Day 196 – 365 / July 15th 2015 ***CAUTION – YUKKINESS*** The footwear on the left, my oh so comfy, trusted and claret and amber themed Doc Marten’s, have had to be put to one side for a few days in favour of the monstrosities on the right. Why? Well, this is where the yukkiness appears, I’ve…
Day 195 – 365
Day 195 – 365 / July 14th 2015 What better sight than a fridge full of beer? And cider. Cider’s good too. American beer and English cider. US and UK – kinda sums me up. I love them both (or is that all?) I rather enjoy a bottle of Budweiser and, freshly returned from The Good…
