Tat London Journal

There aren’t many occasions when Tat gets a scoop. We’re not exactly set up for it—budgets are hardly a word we deal in. And I don’t mean that in the flippant “who needs a budget?” sense. I mean we rarely have the means to chase the stories we’d love to. Luckily, we have a handful of excellent contributors, and every so often, we stumble upon a house or a story that hasn’t yet graced the pages of a magazine or newspaper. When that happens, I feel a quiet sense of pride.

“Oh I do like to be beside the seaside, oh I do like to be beside the sea…” Yes, oh yes, we’re getting giddy at the thought of escaping the city or perhaps you’re already tucked away in the landlocked countryside and yearning for a glimpse of that shimmering blue that surrounds us.

While I take the briefest moment away from Tat, I’ve asked a few people I admire to contribute some articles—ensuring the smooth running of this great vessel remains on course. The destination, as ever: intrigue and beauty.
