Mancunian Steel

In CSS, naturally. A little background story.

On my route to work via the Metrolink, there's this old steel workshop by the canal. It's pretty small, with all these rusting cars and boats sitting outside it. The entrance is this great big pair of steel doors, with the company's name (not had a chance to catch what it's actually called) as well as stuff like phone numbers, services provided, etc. But when the doors are open you see this horror movie style text reading "Mancunian Steel".

I really love the idea of having this secret little message to spur on the workers. The text was rusty and worn and the door was clearly falling apart. It's so great.

I'll get a picture some day.
