Been a hectic few weeks at HB, working on orders & preparing for a forthcoming day job role as lead Audio-Visual technician for the British Art Show tour. Thanks for all your patience with the September pre-orders. Also been dipping into 'The Owl Service' by Alan Garner, a recent charity shop find.

What an absolute delight to see this photo pop up of Jim Moir with one of our ident clocks. Jim has been a constant throughout my adult life, and as a huge comedy fan and someone who spends their day job installing exhibitions for galleries, I was utterly thrilled to send him some of my own work. 😍

It's been a busy week at HB as we shipped the last of the Midlands TV Ident clock pre-orders. We've popped another handful in the shop for shipping in September for anyone who missed out first time. This will be the last pre-order run of clocks and signs until the end of the year. +Shop link in bio+

Been a busy few weeks with the day job, after working on a Joe Lycett exhibition at Birmingham Museum last week, and doing site visits for my role as lead AV tech for the forthcoming 'British Art Show' tour for Hayward Gallery. Currently recharging the batteries, reading a few books in the garden. 🌞

+ THAMES TV IDENT + This Yamaha PSS-31 keyboard is from 1992, and belonged to my wife when she was younger. I dusted it off and worked out the notes to the famous TV ident. An omnipresent motif for anyone who grew up in the UK during the 70s & 80s. Which programme does it remind you of?

New clock from @hiddenbritain.bsky.social to add a bit of style to my wall.
Photo of a clock that is styled as a 1970s BBC 2 ident with two horizontal orange lines either side of a white "2" drawn from two white lines. The clock face consists of short orange double lines marking each hour that get progressively thicker  from the one to the 12 position.
