CHANGING SEASONS I started to make papier mache casts of my spade and fork some months ago after work on the allotment had stopped. The white shapes looked like skeletons of themselves and I began to think of them as […]
With this beautiful weather I'm finding it quite hard to get motivated. I was in Uni on Friday and the space moved on leaps and bounds. My helpers (and a few others who were at a lose end) helped me […]
