Why is it that on every building project there is never enough time allowed for the proper and safe commissioning on building systems? Building contracts have to change. #spursnotready bbc.co.uk/sport/football…

Final inspections this week at @MarlboroughCol Dancy House with Feltham Construction Mace Allies and Morrison

Apple has just ridiculed my last tweet by launching a breakfast tray as a phone. Oh well, at least the porridge won't get cold.

I hate the first cold week of the autumn, especially after half term and the boiler plant is still not finished.

I like this new timetable for the track works around Bath. Welcome to my personal quiet carriage, Paddington, 18.30

Just heading east on the start of my journey to Munich to deliver this to the 22nd International Passive House Conference on Saturday morning. Hope to find @ecominimalnick and @AR_Clarke in Germany this evening to discuss tactics.

Just completed the plenary session at the Passive House conference. Mix of politics, good intention, successful project examples, lots of apartments, detailed financial analysis and graphs with arrows going the right way.
