Biking around lagoon with dog, koala in middle of road, dog needs restraining, koala latches onto my leg, and sinks teeth into right knee, teeth either sid eof my patella,.... claws deep into my calf muscle, prised the thingie off woith ma pottinig hands...

loaded kiln late last night, a dozen teacups were part of the load. Went into shed this am on way to work. ONE teacup stll on the outside!! How did this happen?

another 39deg C still outta there!

family health etc, etc has kept me away from clay. today will prob be dreamtime in my space.

Pugmill looked so beautifully clean, and somewhat corroded that I was lured into using it myself!!

Spent yesterday cleaning pugmill so that afriend can use it .. now it's so clean, well almost, feel it should be left that way as I won't be using it for a time and can't keep the clay left in pug wet. However it has been character building,.. Maybe I'll offer to wedge the clay instead..

Don't know how to see Members' gallery

Peace to all and planet Earth.

Well 41Degrees C here tomorrow, only got to 35 today,  Pots ready to trim before y'get them off the wheel. Shed a sauna, off for a long drink of tea, the best on a hot night.

Tomorrow, my turn to sit in a gallery, sounds fine.

38deg C in the shade, keeping me out of my corrugated iron clay shed.

back to the potery, family health, books, etc, etc kept me away from clay!!

Too hot to pot here in my tin shed. Want to try spoons soon. Maybe too tricky for me.. Or maybe I've dropped too many onto a slate floor, but tose were those nasty production ones..

any of you who have not cut fromthe hump with a string, do it, absolute bliss after years of getting a knife horizontal and in the process of moving to ware board, flipping many a piece

Didn't have a smashing day, patched up and reglazed many pots on the to do shelf, felt religious, had a lot of success in the refire.

Yesterday refir ed blistered pots..waiting, waiting. Ground blistered, flaky shelves.Prepared pots for glazing today. Frost on the ground this am but birds nesting.

made some brushes from a variety of vegetation and milet broom, off to try them on outside of some earthenware bowls. think some will be a bit brittle. Hope the slip is the right consistency,usually defloc for even application.

back to throwing exercises, and poss need a new thumb.. weakness and pain in second joint from tip.. battled today, tomorrow.. JB's exercises until!!!
