Agency folks caught a few rays, downed a few cool drinks and chewed on the charred meat.

Ronit, Emma, Adam and Penny.

Kate, Bronwen and Nicholla. Bron and Nich were swapping baby stories – Nicholla just came back to work  from maternity leave, while Bronwen is about to come back from hers.
Long months  of noise, disruption and building work went into putting the extra floor on top of the building (and a few quid) but it all felt worthwhile when we could sit out in the sun, have a beer and look out across the London skyline.
