KP: Do you think it still remains fairly, in keeping with the original kind of goals of the Print Studio?

JP: I would say so, yes. I mean I think it’s a really good place to work. It’s a very nice atmosphere in there and the facilities are really excellent.I mean there’ll always be folk that say, “oh I liked it better in the old days” you know, “you could smoke in there!” [both laugh] or you know without all this health and safety stuff. You know some folk’ll say “Oh I preferred the oil-based screenprinting inks” or something like that. One thing that is different now - well there’s a lot of things that are very different now, it’s great that we have the really excellent digital suite. And Murray’s an absolute whizz in there, I think. I mean the facilities, just the scale of the prints that you can do, is really amazing. And his advice you can have as well.
