Yesterday evening, even though it was raining, I decided to go down to the hut to see if anything was going on in the bay as it was firework night. I tried taking low light pictures, going to try and start using the different functions.

There was a bonfire on the beach and a bit later another one was set. I also tried to catch fireworks, without a lot of success, and I didn't want the camera getting too wet!

Tina dropped me in town today and I took the shopping trolley as I had missed a parcel yesterday and I was expecting a couple of fairly big packages. It was quite funny when the package was actually a mug! Mike had told me about an offer to get a photo mug done at a very reasonable price, so I decided to get some of those sunset pictures on one!

Very happy with that, I have seen some great skies since I lived here. I did some shopping and then decided to call in at the ceramic studio. It was a nice surprise to see the cross I had painted, still not fired, in the remembrance window display.

Sandy was on her won when I arrived so I decided to find something to paint. They have had a couple of plaques there for a while and I have often been tempted to paint the unicorn, even though it is a bit intricate.  Ended up painting for getting on for three hours and now have another thing to go in the kiln next time they are firing.
