1. In contrast to last week’s frustrating session at pottery, I have lots of fun – we laugh heartily during class and beyond; I start some new items and I refine some existing ones. My work that has come out of the kiln is good too: some of it isn’t at all as I’d imagined it (eg, the blue pyramid above should be brown/blue mottled) but I still like it. I feel like I’m making progress again.

2c. The caterpillar on John’s shoulder moves like it’s in a cartoon.
3. Even though I’m already in my pyjamas, we decided on the spur of the moment to go to Leeds to watch B’s new band play. The PA is a little too loud, a little distorted in the small space but we enjoy the gig all the same: the drums – played with big padded beaters and brushes – are considerably more interesting than one might expect, the guitar “solos” & vocal harmonies are pleasant and a surprise cover makes our night.
