It's a sign!

Last October, whilst on holiday in Cornwall, we stumbled across a manufacturer of house signs, coasters and clocks that grabbed our attention. www.ashortwalk.com use recycled coffee cups to make contemporary products that look as if they've been riven from slate when they are infact a made from waste material. Recycling at it's best.

With us making good progress at the front of the house we thought it was now time to get a new sign for Hillside, and this is what turned up in the post on Friday courtesy of Ashortwalk:



Okay, so there is already a stone at the front of the house with 'Hill Side Cottage 1905' carved into it, but it's at first floor level and seems to be out of most peoples line of sight. The number of callers we have at the door who ask if the house is anything but Hillside confirms this.

So hopefully, once we've put the new name sign at the front of the house we'll stem the regular flow of delivery men looking for some other property. We'll see.
