Garage Door Photo Tarpaulin
The days of boring garage doors are numbered because there are
now photo tarpaulins for garage doors.
Garage doors have until now mostly been mouse grey and ugly – and often spoil the appearance of well-maintained homes.
Our new photo tarpaulins can give monochrome up-and-over garage doors a whole new look.
The printed-on 3D motifs are deceptively realistic and will cause neighbors, friends and passers-by to stop and stare.
Detailed installation instructions here.

Classical Education Quiz
The story in Thursday's Telegraph began, "Thousands of students will receive their A-level results today, only to have their achievements questioned by the It-Was-So-Much-Harder-In-My-Day brigade. But how much did previous generations really learn, how much can they remember now and is there actually any benefit to a classical education? Take our quiz, and see if you can tell your Tantalus from your Tacitus...."
My score: 28 (of 44 questions).
