Woohoo

Evening all

I'd love to share some pictures of the firing with you, but unfortunately my camera finally bit the dust today, so I've none to show you.

Anyway, it was a great firing, with some pots that I'm very happy to have made. There are a few that I wish I hadn't made too and of course, they're the ones that I always see first.

There are lots and lots of jugs in all shapes and sizes. The large raw jug came out of the kiln just as I'd hoped and the tile frieze worked beautifully.

I'm away for a couple of days now in Cornwall, but I'll get some pictures up as soon as I can.

What a relief!

Bye for now

    Congratulations on the firing, Doug. No doubt we'll see photos soon. You are also no doubt in mourning for your Red Sox' loss last night and their failure to make the playoffs. You did say way back in the spring that "No team ever made the playoffs that started the season by losing the first six games." And by god you were right.

    Great news!
    Just like a real old fashioned potter I bet Issac Button didn't take any pics of his pots.
    I had a camera that broke last week but that was a combination of Marion & Cadbury trip throw crash.
