slow start

 I didn't feel enthusiastic atall this morning...back to wet and windy....well this IS the West of Scotland!!

But the forecast was good for later...so washing on, and organise the kitchen. ready for the next batch of pots.

The weather changed to sun and breezy....with rainclouds going either side of us..so I risked it...clothes on the line and me with clay on my hands as I threw some bowls..living dangerously!!

When it starts flowing...you just go with it...half a dozen smaller bowls that could end up as berry bowls (colanders)....two more 2 pound bowls that may be yarn bowls...and two three pound bowls.  Gradually working up towards what I was throwing before.

I finished...as it started raining gently..lunch was at three!! 

Now after nine it is raining steadily...and the kitchen is full of pots!!

  5. Another very productive day. Sounds a bit like here where lunch is often at 3 p.m. or even 4 p.m.

    1. I suppose it looks quick...but much slower than when I've worked for others. I'll be glad when I can fire these myself

  8. You accomplished more unenthusiastically than I do with enthusiasm!
