Someone asked me the other day what my plans were.
" I'm working in my cell," I replied, and then I wondered why they looked at me like I had two heads!

Yes, my studio is an old police cell. I work behind a massive iron door, and have to pass through some bars get to the sink!

I have loads of offers on at the moment and am adding more every day. Take a look here:

And remember everything was packaged in a cosy police cell, with original graffiti visible on the walls, big iron doors and bars everywhere ❤️

Hello people, I have bitten the bullet and created a new instagram for myself. I had my old one for nearly 2 years and I loved seeing the history of what I had done, and what was occurring in the world. It got me through the pandemic and the Queens death, and more of course. However I might never get it back from the horrible hackers, and I need a way to show you all my business!
If you like BlockArt please follow my new account. 😔

Last day for online ordering is tomorrow 15th December. Any orders after that will be processed 10th January.
Local pickup can be arranged up until the 24th December.

Have a wonderful Christmas!!!!

We're really pleased to say we've been able to donate over £2,000 to the Peeblesshire Foodbank this week!

Cycling and mountain-biking are a big part of our local culture and we’re delighted that you, the riders, have made it possible for us to contribute to such an important community organisation. We know the Peebles Foodbank is under huge pressure at this time of year and want to thank you for taking part in our events and for your kind donations.

“The cash has come at a good time, as the Foodbank’s Carol Bon explains, “We are so grateful for this generous donation – it’s been a tough year for the foodbank and we are currently having to buy around one third of our food, so this money will be well spent on essentials for those who need them most.”

Would you like to donate? https://peeblesshire.foodbank.org.uk/give-help/donate-money/
