Spring, and our first trip to Quercy, is nearly upon us



Over the winter here in Moretonhampstead we have been enjoying Dartmoor and our surroundings



We had Rachel here for a month before she went to Berlin.  Here is Rachel, Coronel and Pumpkin! Lucy's horses.  Coronel is a beauty - an Andalucian stallion. Pumpkin a Shetland.  Pumkin is the boss in this field!

Our new fireplance and Tigger

Spare bedroom decorated with Colefax & Fowler wallpaper, and one of my quilts.


Seeing our lovely grandchild Sophie


Test firing lustre glazes in the kin.  I've finally cracked it.  760 degrees C is hit enough to make the gold lustre fuse to the glaze.


Plus visiting mum in Green Tree Court and crocheting together her lovely knitted squares to make tunics etc.
Here she instisted on trying on Rachel's skating helmet.

Simon came to visit.  We have almost finished the porch on our house.  Maggie will stay in it and look after the place and
Tigger while we are away.
