It's a very relaxed atmosphere at Draycott, its the second time I've taken part and have enjoyed the experience each time. It feels very friendly and open with no pretensions. In the garden Stevie Davis has hung some beautiul glasswork on the blossoming tree, looking as though these forms have almost mutated out of the branches.

I was sharing the space with a couple of jewellery makers of very fine and very delicate silverware, I have to admire such patience when making such a delicate item. Karen Victoria, a mixture of self confessed 50's housewife accompanied by a fear of facepaint. We were treated to a session by the Guerilla Drummers who set up for a set in the garden and just as we were starting to wind Sophie Snell turned up and told us a beautiful welsh story about ancestry, love and fish.
I also said goodbye to a painting yesterday and happily sent it off to its new home, where I hope it will be very happy. My new range of cards are also being well recieved too, having decided I should put my doodling to a good use and produced some cards which I'm pleased with.
So as I sit and listen to yesterday's Desert Island Discs and wait for my coffee to brew, I'm anticipating another lovely relaxed day, with good conversations with visitors and today I shall have to visit the lady at the end of the road who sells CAKE!
