Michael Andrews RA (1928 – 1995) was a British painter born in Norwich, England. From 1947 to 1949 he was in National service with nineteen months spent in Egypt.
After the return, Andrews enrolled the Slade School of Fine Art and from 1949 to 1953, where he studied with William Coldstream, Lucian Freud, William Townsend and Lawrence Gowing. In 1953 he spent six months in Italy after receiving a Rome Scholarship in Painting and five years later started teaching at the Slade and Chelsea School of Art. Through that period Andrews held a fellowship at the Digswell Arts Trust and shared a studio with Patrick Swift.

Digswell Viaduct
Location & History
The Digswell Viaduct is a railway bridge that carries the East Coast Main Line over the River Mimram in Hertfordshire. The viaduct is 475 metres in length and 30 metres tall.
It was designed by William Cubitt in the style of a Roman aqueduct. Construction took two years and was first opened for use on the 6th of August 1850.
A three-year project in the mid 1930s encased the viaduct's deteriorating brickwork in the blue engineering brick seen today. Overhead lines were added when the line was electrified in the 1970s.
What's There?
The viaduct is the main attraction at this location, but there's also a local park, which offers an ideal place to stop for lunch or a picnic.
There are plenty of benches around the park, and at the far end you will find a small pond that you can walk around.
For the best view, you can follow a path from the car park under the viaduct for around 50 metres.
Parking
There's a free car park located right next to the viaduct that's open 24 hours. Stays are limited to 2 hours on Mondays to Fridays between 9am - 1pm.
Accessibility
With the car park right next to the viaduct, this location is ideal for people who struggle to walk long distances. There is a level path under the viaduct suitable for wheelchairs. Unfortunately there are no benches along this path, but walking around 50–75 metres will give you the best view of the structure.
The park is just across the road from the car park and also offers a view of the viaduct. The park is around 100 metres in length, with benches located at the far end. The pond area is located at the far end of the park, with a bench facing over the water. The park is all grass with no paths, so it may be unsuitable for wheelchairs, especially after rain.
Conclusion
Overall, the Digswell Viaduct is a great place to visit, particularly during good weather, with the park nearby offering a good place for lunch or a picnic. This location is ideal for people who struggle to walk long distances, given the close proximity of the car park. There is also a long walk for more able visitors that takes you around the local area.

Autoglym Products
In 1965, Dennis Barley launched the Autoglym Australia brand with a product range of eleven products for the refurbishment of used car paintwork. In those days, these products were available only to professional valets in workshops and garages. Autoglym products were manufactured by Welwyn Plastics in Digswell, Welwyn Garden City. In the mid-1970s, the brand was purchased by the Altro Group.
Autoglym's range of car care products are used by enthusiasts, professional detailers, and car enthusiasts alike. From interior care products to exterior detailing, their range of products includes autoglym life shine and a car wax. Each product offers long-lasting protection for paintwork. With two Royal Warrants and a lifetime guarantee, Autoglym can be trusted to protect your car for many years to come. The company's products are formulated to provide maximum protection against environmental threats, making them ideal for both professional and amateur car owners.
Suitable for all types of paintwork, Autoglym Super Resin Polish helps restore a gloss to all types of surfaces. With its cutting properties, this polish can be applied with light or medium pressure. For deep-level damage, it can be applied using a stronger pressure. For black plastic trim, Autoglym Fast Glass Cleaner is a good choice. Its easy-to-use formula makes it the perfect car polish for beginners.
For more serious detailing, you can try Autoglym Super Resin Polish. This polish is especially effective for cars with neglected paintwork. Autoglym Super Resin Polish is also great for improving colour clarity. The polish is particularly useful for car owners who want a high-quality paint job. It's also a good choice for budget-conscious car owners. However, if you want a budget-friendly polish, you may want to try Meguiars Ultimate Compound.
Autoglym's lifeshine package includes an interior treatment that protects car upholstery and enables cleaning by a pressure washer. The interior shampoo is easily applied, preventing spills from soaking into the material and making it easy to wipe away. It is also suitable for carpets, dashboards, and boot. It repels mud footprints and removes sticky stains. This car valet kit is a good option for anyone who is constantly on the go.
As a UK-based manufacturer, Autoglym has its own website, but is rarely seen at detailing related events. It may be represented by a distributor, reseller or webshop. If you are unsure of where to find the best auto detailing products, you can try the Autoglym website. It features reviews from satisfied customers and information about the company's products. The company has a customer service team, as well as a team of Technical Service Specialists who are able to answer any questions you may have.
The Autoglym Super Resin Polish removes light scratches, scuffs, and haze from paint. Autoglym's products maintain a swirl-free finish and protect your car's paintwork. For a high-gloss finish, Autoglym's super resin polish is a good choice. It can be used on any type of paint. In addition to polishing your car, Autoglym offers a special Surface Detailing Clay Kit to remove any contaminates.
If you are looking for a more traditional wax, Autoglym's Ultra High Definition Wax is an excellent choice. This polish offers a mirror-like finish and comes with a buffing cloth. If you have a car that suffers from swirl marks, Autoglym's Rapid Aqua Wax can be a cost-effective carnauba wax that will still leave a high-gloss finish.
After using Autoglym's Super Resin Polish, you need to buff it off. It can be applied in two or three layers and is supposed to last for six weeks. You can use a magic eraser or rubber to remove the residue, but these methods aren't recommended as they can cause scratches and damage trim. Then you can use Autoglym's Hi-Tech Finish Cloth. It is recommended to fold the cloth twice before buffing your car.
