Stargazing Pods

I'm loving the way they ran out of things to film after the initial shot of the shed, so showed an electrical socket. Then they pretty much just showed the Teddy bear from different angles until the jingle ran out.
The Teddy bear is not included by the way, neither is the advertising sign at the end, both of which where the most exciting parts of the video.

On the video where was the "light theming"?
Did you not see the plug socket clip???
Half the video just showing the teddy though - is that included?![]()
It should be for the price they are charging for these sheds.

I think shipping containers are actually an improvement over these. Thorpe must be clapping their hands . Their hotel is practically 5* compared to these.
There is a curtain rail over the back window (supply own curtain?) and folding wooden screen to blockout the main doorAfter watching the promo film, I actually feel embarrassed for them.
Do they even have any curtains or blinds? Or have they been intentionally left out to facilitate the star-gazing?
But these sheds will be such a success we’ll have them everywhere, Lakeview pods at Thorpe, Peasants village at WarwickYou know things are bad when you find yourself comparing something unfavourably to shipping containers.![]()

Come on now, that’s not a fair comparison. The homeless pods probably each have their own bathroom facilities.

I guess there should be a legal minimum. Maybe on the HSE somewhere? I think it’s something like 4 per 150 people, not sure though.

Each room will have twin beds that can be pushed together to create a double, a bathroom with power shower, free wifi, a TV and air conditioning.

As opposed to this project:
Each room will have two prison beds that are affixed to the floor, access to a urine-soaked bathroom with cold shower, the same free WiFi that every visitor has access to plus one single electrical socket for your convenience (meter charges apply)
