    Fantastic work Craig – These look fantastic.

    And I like how you managed to fit the palm tree into the Cherry picker basket 😉

    Ahh! – NEON!!!, something we needed to see more of on the UKSignBoards..thank you – and fabulous work too!

    I have no idea how neon signs are done – really!…I’d luv it if you could enlighten us all a little over the coming months.

    It is such a vibrant and distinct field of signmaking, one which, I imagine, uses all kinds of unusual skills too?

    Craig – thanks for bringing both yourself and your work onto the boards…

    more please…

    Its great work Craig
    Strangely we fit our signs during the day, then stand back and admire our handiwork (if we’re pleased with it, that is)

    You can’t see the full effect until the evening!!

    Just one question: Following Phil: Why have you got a cherry picker for a palm tree. You don’t have cherrys on a palm tree 😆 😆
