I had a very bitty day today and it wasn’t satisfying at all. Started off with admin and stuff to do on the computer, took AGES to book some train tickets online. It would have been quicker to walk to the station and back again! Then Husb and I took a load of rubbleContinue reading “Gallery, Students, Tip.”

Mens’ Heads And Scary Harry Potter
Went to the cinema this evening to see The Artist but because of the daft queueing system, by the time we got to the front, the film had already started so we decided to see The Woman In Black. Now, I’m not a big fan of horror films, but it’s Harry Potter right? Couldn’t beContinue reading “Mens’ Heads And Scary Harry Potter”
Couples And Irony.
We went out for a lovely meal this evening, because it’s Valentine’s Day and because we don’t need much of an excuse to go to PAs in Mumbles, one of our favourite restaurants. Usually when we eat out, we’re surrounded by families, single sex groups, friends on a night out but tonight it wasContinue reading “Couples And Irony.”
Friendship And A Fine Stilton.
An old friend came to stay over the weekend and we had a really nice time, lolling around watching films and the telly, eating comfort food to cope with the cold damp weather and relaxing in that comfortable zone that comes with many years of friendship. And today, another old friend came over for aContinue reading “Friendship And A Fine Stilton.”
Watching The Rugby
Here’s The Husb indulging one of his favourite pastimes today, lying on the settee watching an international Rugby match on the TV. Of course Wales was playing. And Wales won. So he’s a very, very happy Husb. Final score Wales 27, Scotland 13. Well played, excellent game, minimal shouting and swearing from the region ofContinue reading “Watching The Rugby”
Old Friend @ The Etsy Shop.
This is my friend who has come to visit from England for the weekend; we’ve been friends now for over 30 years. We used to riot round the place, painting the town red, hanging out in clubs and pubs so disreputable that they wouldn’t be allowed to exist these days 😉 . Now we entertainContinue reading “Old Friend @ The Etsy Shop.”
The Work Behind THE WORK
An artist friend recently opened an Etsy shop and posted a link on Facebook. Her work is lovely, but one FB ‘friend’ posted that it was way too expensive. I was very irritated by this as I thought it very reasonably priced – each piece is original and beautifully made. I was reading some stuffContinue reading “The Work Behind THE WORK”
Welsh Cakes, Swansea Jack And Ladies Who Lunch.
Managed to catch Husb’s cold so I wasn’t feeling too good at the studio this morning; by midday I had an urge for hot chocolate and a Welsh Cake – unusual because I don’t have a sweet tooth but I’ve noticed that I like chocolate and cakes much more when I’m unwell. I wandered downContinue reading “Welsh Cakes, Swansea Jack And Ladies Who Lunch.”
A Stroppy Fish Out Of Water
Another drawing from my hospital visit yesterday, accompanying my young relative to the ante-natal clinic. It was a weird place, not somewhere I enjoyed being. I thought it was a bit like a meat market if I’m honest. There wasn’t a problem with the medical staff, who seemed very kind, patient and helpful, but theContinue reading “A Stroppy Fish Out Of Water”
Cosy Couple At The Blood Clinic
Today I accompanied a young relative to an appointment at a hospital in a nearby town. The whole process took around two hours, shifting around the hospital to different departments, but I had my sketchbook and a couple of pens so I made good use of the time and no-one was safe from my scribbling.Continue reading “Cosy Couple At The Blood Clinic”
