I crave John Robshaw

Ok, so I have been working on this post for weeks now and finally I got it together. Let's just start with the fact that it has been over two weeks since I left for NYC to visit cousin Jane (and Tyler) and their sweet baby Wade and I am just now getting around to blogging about what a fabulous time we had!

I swear, the morning after I got back, I sat down to catch up on all the blogs I had fallen behind on when...blackness was in front of my face. I swear, you have no idea how many times I pressed the on/off button, how many "please, just turn on's" I said, and how many %%&^*( were said following that.

Done.

After dropping my MAC (that's never supposed to break or have any problems) off with the "fix it man," I get an estimate of $900+ to fix-NO THANK YOU!!! So off to the Apple store I went on Black Friday and purchased a new one. Happy + Sad....for obvious reasons.....So....here I am finally figuring out how to make a collage via photoshop and here's what I came up with:

via a bloomsbury life, design sponge, john robshaw, sara gilbane interiors, gilt

So the girlies I was with are always in the know and knew just where all the sample sales were!!! Yay for me, I was in good company! We headed somewhere on the subway to end up in a line for what felt like an hour to squeeze into John Robshaw heaven!

So many great finds + too many people = only a few things.

(This pillow is obviously too big for this chair, it just happened to be to be the tidiest place in the house at the moment:)

(I do have a pair of these pillow covers, but again, avoiding the disaster areas lurking nearby)

I did get a robe too, but I will spare you the photos as well as a great looking tablecloth-impulse buy. It was definitely worth the wait! If you live under a rock and don't know who this fella is, then go look him up! Beautiful textiles!!! So sorry to ramble, a lot to say!

Six Wheeled C6W Sports Car by Covini

Six Wheeled C6W Sports Car by Covini, This amazing sports car from Covinni is taken from the Audi 4.2 liter engine that has 433 bhp with a maximum speed of 297 km / h and most of all, this car has 6 wheels where there are 4 wheels on the front. Well the people of Covini Engineering waits a long time to make this comfortable sports car with 6 wheels.

The Usage of 6 wheels while 4 pieces of the wheel is placed on the front is to make the car more stable at the time of the corner, steady on the highway and braking.

After 36 long years in the making, Ferruccio Covini’s C6W or the Convini 6 Wheel finally takes form. The 2-seat, 2-door sports coupé from Italy which was inspired by 1976 Tyrrell P34 reported to enter production two years back and has finally been unveiled this week.

This six-wheeled whacky beast gets power from a 4.2-liter Audi sourced V8 engine that generates a massive 440PS and 346 lb-ft torque. Engine is mated to a six-speed manual gearbox that sends power to the rear wheels and there is also independent front and rear wishbone suspension, 15-inch front wheels and 20-inch rear wheels with Brembo disk brakes. The top speed of the vehicle is expected to be 185mph.

Shortcutter Amphibious Vehicle by John Hinton

Shortcutter Amphibious Vehicle by John Hinton - this vehicle can move in land and water, this interesting concept starts from a lawnmower and old boat. It seems that a concept of All in one vehicle will be a trends in a next few years, there's so many great concept of An Amphibious Vehicle such as This Halo Intersceptor Car, and this Amphibious Bus.

Surely There is no death of auto nerds who, every now and then, do this thing or that to get the attention and cherish the tag of doing something that others haven’t even thought of. Here is one such man, John Hinton. He’s made ‘Shortcutter’ from a sit on lawnmower and old boat. Now you might be thinking what’s so good about this Shortcutter? Well, it could travel on road at a comparatively show speed of 6mph and then can swiftly take to the water.

Work on this four wheeled amphibious machine is still in progress and John hopes that its future models can revolutionize the way we commute. Theoretically go anywhere vehicle is as good as a normal car and can be used for shopping or to go to office. John is in touch with Honda to mass produce the amphibious vehicle and according to him ‘it’s about time the car and marine industries combined’. This vehicle came into being after John put two years of herculean effort and about £1,000 in making the prototype. Hope to see it rolling and taking to the water soon.
