Ahhh dreams of a magical filing system where you place your files in a tray on the back of a little bike. You cycle super fast and the paperwork flies out - firstly in to a large cloud of paper and then each sheet shoots in to its proper well. Sorted.
Little Bike Look Out - what's that? Woody loves vintage little bikes, in fact she rides a cream Raleigh Compact from 1986. So when she spots a little bike, she takes a photo.

This is the Raleigh Shopper colour we remember most from growing up- true 70s style. Dynamo rear light still intact, along with the white rimmed tyres and Sturmey Archer gears. Looking to tackle some of Brighton's hills on 3 gears? Best to top up on a espresso or two. Here's our favourite local coffee haunts: Small Batch, Mr Wolf, Flying Saucer.

Our new studio space is in the Brighton Open Market. We love being here. There's a really mixture of market stalls selling everyday essentials alongside creative businesses. There's nothing better than having a natter about life while picking up veg for your dinner. Everything from how your day is going to philosophy and art are covered in these little chats with our local green grocers. This afternoon Rodney remarked on this Romanesque cauliflower -... SEE MORE

The extended English summer sure helps some Calfornia daydreaming. The other week, Woody took a quick snap shot of cloud waves in the sky. Those plants reaching up to the sun have also been reminding us of early David Hockney drawings from his time spent in LA.
As the autumnal days draw in for those of us in England so do new Woody products. Oh yeah.

Our new paper tapes are beautiful and practical - so strong you can pack parcels with them. The tape is made of paper so you can recycle it and colour it in. Woody recommends using coloured pencils - it looks great on brown paper. Well designed and better for the environment, plus you get 55 metres to play with.
