Darn – missed!

Yesterday was our day to host a gathering of the clans Cheddar and Cheshire – eight adults, one little un, two dogs and a cat – although the cat effected a tactical withdrawal very soon after the arrival of the first dog.

And by the time the last one had gone home – I had no energy left for posting.

Not much has happened today, apart from tidying up, de-Christmasing the house, and – at last – reading the course handbook for the degree.

It’s scary. And led to the gathering of some rather disorganised notes into one large ring-binder. Good job I’d already started to gather things in it, before I realised the accumulated wisdom of three years would need to be assessed  …

I also looked at all the recommended reading for the different modules. I think ABE books may be getting rather a lot of business from me in the future.

And here we have some more trees – paper cuts on the left, an ‘undrawing’ [i.e. removing details from a charcoal coat] on the right.
