The rooms that we use to practise from are very important to us, aren't they? They have to be functional - fit for the purpose, accessible etc - but also places that we feel comfortable about spending lots of our time. Our clients also have to feel comfortable there, but usually that's only for an hour a week, not all week!

I have realised this in a new way in the last few days, as I have been told that someone new is moving in to the unit above me. I am in a Victorian mill building in the centre of Stroud, converted for the use of all sorts of different artisans and professionals. For the last two years I have been featherbedded by having no one above me at all - it was just used for storage. Now all that is to change - and I know there will be noise issues. (Moving the furniture out last week was horrendous!) As it's an old building the noise insulation is minimal.

I'm trying not to panic, but to see what happens, but it's unnerving all the same.
