      And then there was light. Big thanks to @GC for helping us source the best lights for the job.

      Before

      After

      Pictures don't truly capture the difference has made for us, the task of picking shirts and jackets has been a complete nightmare for the last year or so, we now need to issue all staff with a pair of sunglasses

        @Alex Do you have any notable stories of something that got "lost" and was an amazing find later when it was discovered?

          AJ and I spent about two hours looking for a 526PJ that had been put in the middle of some IHSH-177s but we couldn't see the buttons/snaps in the dark for guidance, or the colour of the denim so we had to start at the beginning of the rack and look at every tag until we found it

            Storage area is looking great guys, I'm pleased to see the light reaches up to the top blue boxes. Giles kindly shared with me an image of the new mezzanine areas, which seemed to work out well. Not only is the illumination improved, but the colour rendering index of those specific LED's is light years ahead of the fluoro's they've replaced. Meaning, in addition to having sufficient light, the colours of fabrics will also be far better represented. Getting in shape for the future I.H, is a good job done !
            PS: Next time you do zoom presentation, give me a shout, I'll happily advise again on lighting the international stage.

                          Sheddy type things (stuff that is currently taking up room inside, but would do just as well in the shed) and bikes.  Lots of the guys cycle to work, so having somewhere out of the rain and not in the office will be a good thing….
