successes..and a blogger blip

 First thing, phone the dental surgery...and they could fit me in..so off on the bus on a blustery day.

Teeth sorted in five minutes...it is a matter of getting the technique right! Which is a relief.

Shoes...tough..they ARE leather..but Nubuck is a sort of suède. Nice to see the wee cobbler anyway...and yes, he is a little short of stature! One can of water repellant bought .

It had started that fine very wet rain as I took this photo...the newer building on the left with token references to the one next to it....


With rain and wind...no point in having a day in Ayr. There is also good coffee at home....

I spent the afternoon being productive...



The one on the bottom right is new as a print or card. I made the block a while ago but never took it further. However it has a strength and vitality that will lead somewhere...

Blogger is having a blip again...sometimes I can't reply to a comment...sometimes I can't make a comment....things like this differ between mobile and web versions..


So I'm not ignoring you all..and I'm not the only one this is happening to...Tiggers Mum at least and probably others too.

They'll sort it out soon enough..just carry on regardless!!

Yeah, I think almost everyone was blocked from commenting yesterday. Seems to be sorted now.

I have been having commenting problems too. Hope this one works.

So happy to know it's not just me! Happy printing!

I love that new block print from your old blog. It's terrific.

Sometimes commenting works, but not always. It might take a few days to fully sort.
Nubuck shoes are great once waterproofing is applied. My ankle boots lasted for years.

The only time I ever made blocks was 50 years ago. And I still have them and sometimes think of using them to make prints. Maybe I will do it someday.

Good you got your teeth sorted, sounds like it was a quick fix, have a nice weekend.

Oh yes. Good coffee at home is the best. Especially when it’s raining.
I’ve had some trouble I think. Obviously they’re tinkering again. Don’t know why. It was just fine as it was
