Pick a sheet off the wall. Then drag a design down here and I'll cut you an acetate.

Right — you're stood in front of the wall, so look at the wall. Sheets are pinned four deep, the ones underneath are the ones nobody's asked for, and I'm not unpinning the lot for you. Take one down, bring me a number.

Heater's on. Four on the stairs. The supply boat pair want theirs finished before the tide turns at half five, so if you're browsing, browse fast.

Acetates, a scriber and a tin of carbon on the drawing bench, north window light — Bench end, north window. Scriber, carbon pounce, the tin of speed-stick that holds the stencil down. The mirror's out of shot on the left, screwed to the wall at chair height, because a stencil that looks square on paper is not square on a shoulder.
