Hard work morning

 This morning's work was kneading clay...two bags again....it took over an hour and a half, but worth doing well to have the firm and soft mixed evenly.

I counted the bags...I have put two more in the soaking bin..

There are twenty, stiffer bags...and six possibly half bags that are completely dry.

I could do with moving the small chest freezer to the workshop for a clay store, but there isn't room for it yet...so.it will have to stay cluttering the kitchen! 

I managed to scrape the back of my hand on the rim of a plastic tub....mad dash to clean up and slap two plasters crosswise on my hand to keep it clean. So no throwing in the afternoon... probably a good thing after the morning's work!!

So I finished cleaning off the biscuit mould...

Lunch was had sitting on the garden bench in the sun...while the bread machine was the source of lovely kitchen smells??

I saw the late Paddy over the road's son...Patrick...now called Paddy!...at the house over the road...he has a garage in Ayr, but works on his own..so doesn't do clutches.

He returned a handy side table that Pirate had given to his dad...and gave me a small carved wood table...which will be very nice as a present for a friend's birthday next weekend!!

A bit of weeding then quick supper and chat online with another friend. Online socialising might not be ideal but it is keeping in touch.

Then time for bed....from a watercolour sunset last night to a peachy one tonight
