Warp Factor

It’s good to be home but there are a number of exciting jobs to be done before settling including filling the mobile home with LPG… a “little job” the man said but one which involved an exciting encounter with a nozzle that looked like something off star wars. It also came with lengthy instructions which I only got right when the man at the garage came and rescued me.
I am sad to be parted with the mobile home it was very exciting to be on the road, to cook and eat overlooking the deer of Tatton Park or today overlooking Little Morton Hall was really special and I think we will borrow a van again.
Little Morton Hall is a lovely Tutor Mini Mansion built out of wood and wattle and more or less in original state. The hall shows signs of the great skill of the Tudors who were able to adapt the wooden structure as it grew and as the wood warped they simply adapted to the warp so that by the time they put the gallery on the top it has a complete wave in the floor.
It struck me that we need that kind of adaptive building now especially in our regeneration work. Adapting what we are doing as we go along and even incorporating the warps and mistakes into the final result.
