Pew bows?



As for pew bows, they sound ruder than they are. After an enormous amount of R & D, dummy mock ups, masses of swearing, disasters and more swearing, we have the answer.


They won't be like this. Far too easy.

I now know how Tim Berners-Lee felt.  


The answer involves pipe clips, hack saws, freezer bags and a whole heap of good luck.

The secret to keeping cut flowers looking good as long as possible is to minimize the growth of bacteria in the water and to provide nourishment to replace what the flower would have got had it not been cut. Add a few drops of vodka (or any clear spirit) to the water for antibacterial action along with 1 teaspoon sugar. Change the water every other day, refreshing the vodka and sugar each time.


Then sleep it off in a pew.
