Spring Fling

 I spent today mostly driving...but also meeting friends in gallery, farmers market and pottery....and seeing another potter's beautiful garden....and enviable workshop!!

"I have been making for 50 years"....said the blurb....he started at the same time as I did....but, (especially if you are female) Life gets in the way.....

Met a friend for a lunchtime cuppa as well, after a picnic lunch with a view...


You can see the raincloud coming in from the right....I had to wait a while for them to arrive at the arranged café.... because they had got soaked in that downpour and had sheltered in a bus shelter for it to pass... before getting home and changed!!


Today was getting inspiration...and practice at a day of driving...I have to get down to Kent in three weeks time...and that is two days of driving...

A day of driving sounds wonderful to me. I love a road trip.

If driving in two days becomes overwhelming, take three.
Life seems to get in the way all too often. Happy to see progress being made on the kiln.

Sounds like a good day, except for the rain!

Two days of driving is a lot. Hope the weather gods are kind to you.

So nice having a hot shower and dry clothes when the rain soaks us.
