Art in the Gardens

Dear All (Who still look at my blogs)

Off to Botanical Gardens tomorrow to try and sell some of my Woodturnings at Art in the Gardens on the Sheffield Woodturners Club Stand . Looking at the weather at the moment it looks like it is going to be a washout (persistently raining). Weather for tomorrow doesn't look any better and there are severe flood warnings all over the country.

Maybe I should have made an Ark instead.

Hopefully will have some pictures of the day to show you.

God Bless
