IN BRIEF

Monday 19th

Jewellery Class did happen after all at a different centre as the usual one was closed. We were made to feel extrememly welcome and the caretaker took it upon himself to pop across the road to get us some milk when it ran out.
Many thanks to all at the Derby Multicultural Centre.

Wednesday 21st

Graham flew off to America at 9.00am and at 11.00am the internet decided to pack in completely. Tried to wait patiently for it to reappear, but by 7.00pm nothing. Rang the helpline (could have rung Chris Evans up to tell him 'I did this for the first time today', but perhaps too late!) and was told I needed to change the username on the router.... what username... what router... how... where... what... HELP!!

Thursday 22nd

Managed to change the username (so there!) but nothing had happened over night, so decided to change it all back... pressed 'connect' and it burst into life. I proud moment, though I say it myself...
Jewellery Class at Kirk Hallam almost a success, but everyone messed up at the end rushing crutial part of attaching findings. Brought everyone's bracelets home and spent the evening sorting them out.

Friday 23rd

Finished Rubber Stamping technique using a Medalion stamp. Don't usually let my class any where near glitter glue, but they looked stunning with a few blobs! We are being inspected again in April/May time, so have started making plans for a big display (just like school). Took photos and then showed students how to work one of these photo printers (it looks like a toaster), great fun!

Robert and Warren popped in for some tea on the way to Wrexham for a wacky week-end...
