The reason why this home-away-from-home is required (besides their providing of caffeine) will become clear in the series that follows.

Apologies again for the sideways picture. Tilt your head to your left and you will see a nice little patio with a roof for when it rains.

You may notice that due to the small nature of my little studio, there is one noticeable and vital piece of furniture missing, namely a desk or table upon which to write. The tables on the patio don't count because they are outdoors (and therefore at risk for damp/wetness, bad for computer and paper alike).
