Good morning from Abu Dhabi!

Day one in this amazing Emirate and we've already had breakfast in the fantastic buffet restaurant at Yas Viceroy.  It's incredible how much two Scottish boys can put away when the choice is so good.  Fortunately the hotel has brilliant recreational facilities to help us work of the excesses! There are even some Scottish staff in various departments at the Yas Viceroy, so we feel very at home! Later, we're off to Yas Mall, the cities largest and best shopping arena, where we're appearing at events under the Fashion Hits Home banner.  Essentially we'll be using product from the mall's home stores to create exciting room sets. Working with West Elm, Pottery Barn, The One, Debenhams and Home Centre to create fab room sets, the exercise planned to show that the shopping mall 'context' can be a great place to build a stylish home environment.  We'll be on stage at 6.30 and 8.30 each evening and hope you'll join us! Please excuse us for now - we've an ancillary (secret for now) project which we're working on while we're here so we're off to meetings.  More from us soon!
