Many Thanks to Joyknitt for nominating me for the sunshine award, very chuffed indeed
I shall have to spend some time finding some more lovely people to nominate, might take a while, as Joy says there's so much great stuff out there. I've been working at my local theatre tonight, watching The Steve Howe Trio. Enormous fun just the right blend of Yes stuff re-arranged for this jazz trio and some excellent modern jazz, and I got paid! Now watching Prog Brittania 70's nostalgia night.

Thanks to all my friends

I've had a lot of support from friends recently,  my neighbour who recovered all my photos and other vital stuff from a corrupted external hard drive, thanks indeed Ross! I must learn to back up properly, but I know I'm not alone because I tried to get a photo I thought lost for ever, from Redbubble where I'd uploaded it, and found a whole thread of folks in the same boat bemoaning the loss of cherished work.  Found the photo in an obscure file in the end luckily as Redbubble don't allow you to re-load a photo from their site! Thanks to my work colleagues for their sympathy for a recent tragedy in my life, more because they've allowed me to just be normal and not dwell on it too much.

 

photo taken off the end of Ilfracombe sea wall  thought it looked like the end of the world with the mist shutting off the usual view of the horizon. Taken last March.

Feeling better, back to work, thanks to all the lovely people for the suggestions and nice comments about the little heart pendant. Made three more last night in a variety of shades of red and pink, one using a piece of glass from a brake light!, gives it an interesting texture as it has that lumpy sort of little pyramids surface, I've never used a piece before, I'm not even 100% convinced it's glass, might be very hard plastic but it's prettty and came off the beach, naturally recycled by the sea. I've used the back of the glass as the outside so you just get interesting light effects from the textured surface behind it
