Spring

 It has arrived..but don't shout too loud in case you scare it away!! It is still fairly cold overnight....and this morning didn't warm up until nearly 11am.

Still working on tidying....as I had a request for some work for the small gallery at Souter Johnny's in Kirkoswald (also national trust)

That meant hauling things out of the pot(ting) shed....some things went in the bin, others to other sheds with other Things To Be Sorted....and one box of stock came to the house. Not a lot...kiln mending and making pots are getting urgent!!

What is left in the pot shed is my collection and my personal pottery archive...

After a quick snack lunch, I went by car to collect my new business cards from a local printer in Ayr...and then parked near Prestwick Sailing Club where the NCR goes onto the prom...and thence by bike to Troon as I needed something from a specific shop.


They were by the shop! All lined up.

Then back to Prestwick for a gelato...and sit in the sun to eat it...


Arran is over there.... through the haar..I could just about see it.

This Spring has been quite tantalising so far. Tempting us outside with its bright sunshine but then freezing us with its chill breeze.

Sounds a very productive and enjoyable Spring day. It's been great here all week.

Yes *whispers* spring seems to have landed here too - along some strong winds which are incredibly drying - having to water now. Gardeners are never happy!! 😄

A nice Spring day is very encouraging. You accomplished a lot today.

Spring doesn't officially begin here until Sunday (according to the Weather Gods). Snow and rain today. But in the 80's (F) by the end of next week.

Productive!

The idea was to have each shed doing a different job....

Well done on the sales and stocking. It sounds like it's time to get back to the wheel! It's technically spring here. There is definitely some doubt about that! Thanks for coming by!
