We purchased our first company computer in 1988.
Purchased second hand from Halfords Head Office, the computer was the same size as a modern-day small car!
This was solely used to work on our projects with Halfords, as other clients at the time didn't operate with computers.

Report
I recommend this architect's practice to deliver your brief and exceed your expectations. We have worked with them on a beautiful, new extension and also on a smaller project for internal renovation to the old house. They are friendly, reliable and a pleasure to work with, taking the stress out of the rules and regulations of the planning and building process.
