I had a great time! Highly recommend a visit to the small but perfectly formed Isokon Gallery - and as an added bonus it has a hugely knowledgeable and enthusiastic team of volunteers.

I think it would make for a really lovely You're Dead to Me podcast too 😁 Would love to introduce more people to the wonderful world of Art Deco!

Have only just seen this Greg - deeply flattered that one of the best public historians out there noticed my article and took the time to mention it! It's also lovely that it brought up personal memories ❤️

Amazing - an actual oxo cube. I only hope it didn't crumble!
