We’re never quite sure which features will make it into A to B, and that’s exactly the way it should be in publishing. Looking back at this issue, there seems to be a bit of a Brompton feel, but it wasn’t deliberate, simply that our fascinating interview with the company’s MD Will-Butler-Adams coincided with the launch of ‘Brompton Innovation’, an item that may or may not become a regular feature, depending on how innovative YOU turn out to be. Anyway, enjoy the summer.We’re determined to do some solar-electric boating experiments in Poole Harbour, which may -

or of course, may not - feature in a forthcoming issue! And I have the cheek to call it work... DAVID HENSHAW
