Reflections on a cunning plan...

A really good interview, Elvis Costello just achieved Hero status (as far as I'm concerned), and no wonder the bankers were screaming...

I'm about to rip out a goodly section of the interior of "So It Goes" and make some changes to the galley and move the 48V battery bank for easier access and better weight distribution... Pretty much undoing all the changes I made to Mr Lapworth's interior in the past.

I mention this because one alters a designers work at some risk and what may seem like a cunning plan at the time may, set in concrete, be anything but cunning... Designers in most cases have put a lot of thought into what works and more than likely they did it the way they did because it works better.

Which is not to say changing stuff is wrong but simply to keep in mind that sometimes you'll wish you had left it as it was...

So it goes...
