Quite a busy day, Tina came with me when I went to meet Jenny at the art college. Jenny was telling everyone that I was interested in the foundation course, which isn't strictly true, I had just asked if they did any other courses apart from the degrees. Lots of modern art work and young with it artists. some mature students as well, but the building is old with endless stairs. So plenty to think about. We think the building was probably a school, would be good to do a sketch of.

We went and had lunch at a nice little tea room and then went into a large shop called Proudfoot. We got some good bargains there. Then Tina dropped me off at the hairdressers. I had some foils put in and this time I am really pleased with the colour. I was telling Joanne, the hairdresser, about the ceramic studio, and as I had plates to collect she said she would come over with me. She had thought it was just for children. She asked them about getting a paw print panel from the puppy she has. They were keen to do it, their first one. A picture of Joanne with Betsy!

Joanne is a truly delightful young woman. She also has asked me to paint a couple of baubles for her, so another visit for me, which is always good. I took pictures of my plates but they have asked if they can keep them on display, so haven't got them at home yet.

Last night at the craft class we made a decoration and a stocking, and when I got home I finished the tree I had started last week.

I am away at the weekend and as I am taking presents to deliver will not take the laptop, so probably won't be adding to the blog until Sunday night or even Monday.
