The wonderful new 'Bale House' - the new visitor centre at Hastings Country Park in East Sussex that we've had the pleasure of building for Hastings Borough Council. A few finishing touches still to do. #upstraw #interregnwe #constrawtium #hastings youtu.be/CcCTxq3JRZQ

@Autodesk_UKI If I had a customer that tried to order the day before a price increase, but couldn't get hold of the sales agent they had been speaking to because they were on leave, I would give the agent the ability to honour it the following day rather than make it complicated.

@StrawBaleUK Treasurer and @HuffPuffCons proprietor, Phil Christopher, took part in the @NSBRC Virtual Building Systems Workshop in December (2020). His presentation and the full programme of workshops is here: strawbalebuildinguk.com/sbuks-video-pr… #strawbuilding #online #workshop

@PlanningShit @jayforeman Should’ve stuck to lemonade!

When you design for not removing your SUV top-box! 😉Also those squeezed floor to ceiling heights look an absolute joy! @jayforeman

@durationwindows Please contact us ASAP about our commercial window order that is getting repeatedly delayed without any useful communication or explanation @durationwindows. How many phone calls and emails does it take to get a response? We've placed two orders with you and issues with both!

Due to Government guidelines our showroom will be temporarily closing. The last open day will be Weds. We will re-open when the restrictions are lifted. Please visit our showroom page on our website for details. duration.co.uk/showroom.asp

Phil will be presenting at this event with his SBUK hat on. See how straw stacks up against other building methods (hint: really well!). Virtual bookings being taken now. Visit nsbrc.co.uk/building-syste… #strawbalebuilding #nsbrc #selfbuild #sbuk

Here is the latest video from the EU UP Straw project featuring the build in Roomley in the Netherlands, along with our one in Hastings, UK. 💚 youtube.com/watch?v=WM-kam…

@hartwynbuilds It’s definitely allowed. Thank you! 😀

We’re very impressed with Phil and all the team on this project. Vicariously proud if that’s allowed. Great work everyone!

Over the coming weeks, as the building reaches completion, read about the inception and different stages of our Hastings Country Park build. This week - how it all began. huffpuff.me/builds/how-up-…

@CCfunkandsoul You’ve been a lockdown legend Craig! I’m sure discerning construction workers like us, and many others, are missing you already. x

Can I just thank everyone for the love shown to me over the last few weeks regarding the teatime takeover.You’ve made me focus on the positive through the sadness and devastation of lockdown and Covid. Respect

@Hastings_police A massive thank you to PC Toby Young and his colleagues for their help investigating a break-in in progress last night. 🚓💙

@25deadbatts @PlanningShit This is exactly what I thought! And it may be a further optical illusion, but the roofline at the side doesn’t look straight, there is a weird little rising blip at the right after the window.

@PlanningShit Crazy House! Does it have wobbly floors and a hall of mirrors?

Re Preston Station. Had a DM telling me that I chose the wrong angle to appreciate the extension. Not certain why the entrancy bit is the wrong place to look from but for completeness here are the others!
