Thursday and Friday A couple of hectic days, yesterday was Craftday here which means I supply lunch and coffee and cake.As we all take it in turns you only have to do this twice a year so that isn't so bad and it makes for a great day, sometimes discussing themes which affect us all.After lunch, Sheila and I got in a musical practice trying to get Vivaldi right.Had quite a few phone calls as well, one from Ebor where Rie is staying with Libby which was great and caught up with a lot of family news. Today went into the gallery to replace the tunic which was sold yesterday,That was pretty exciting as it is the first garment I have sold since going into the gallery in January. In the afternoon went to the burial of a great great nephew, only 17, such a shame.There was a huge crowd on the hill of the property of his parents where the grave is.I had brought a couple of sprigs of rosemary with tiny yellow roses and gave one to my niece to put on the coffin when the time came. A lot of sobbing youngsters but all the same after the ceremony when the young lads left, they all raced down the hill slithering and sliding at high speeds, still thinking they are indestructible.....I got back home in daylight and cooked dinner. Still reading Jung's biography which is fascinating, not a stitch done today of course, I want to plan another garment now, may do a saddle shoulder tunic.
