too busy

We've been sorting  and tidying here...why doesn't it make much difference?...even though a few bin bags worth of rubbish has gone out!! It was something to do whilst my car was being checked and the rain still fell.

Thursday was spent travelling in the sun, getting or ordering car parts to finish the maintenance/service work on the car. At least I managed to catch up a little with an old friend too.

Today has been too full!   It started with pot sorting- those to change and freshen the display at The Court Cupboard in Abergavenny, others to go to St.Ffagans pottery and a third lot to travel with us to Scotland.  Hopefully some of the latter will be sold at a meeting on the way!!

Then to Court Cupboard, just to deliver the boxes of pots- sorting to be done on Sunday.
On to the friends' workshop I'm sharing, to fettle ten small bowls, and turn three others.  These were made with a different clay from France..and I'm liking it more and more!!
Three left to do on Sunday.

Yet more travelling to Gwehelog, where South Wales Potters are having a firing weekend.  This afternoon was mainly sawing/breaking up pallets for kiln firing!!
Batts had battwash painted and wadding mixed, cups of tea drunk with plenty of biscuits and homemade cookies!! 
There was a little sitting in the sunshine too.
I made my excuses and left early as they were beginning to sort pots to pack in the kiln. 

I'd run out of steam...and now I'm home and had supper, it is too late to make the promised cake...perhaps in the morning....
