All together or individually they don't add up to writing or painting, hence my lack of blogging, just when I was getting going. 'Cos I am not allowed to drive, madam is chauferring me everywhere which is fine, but she sure is stacking up the brownie points for my return to the wheel in about a months time.
Christmas day and night at my daughter's was special, then on to friends at Romsey for Boxing Day. I chilled out in their lovely home with TMS on the radio, the papers and Kempton Park races on the telly, while the five others went for a w nter walk in the New Forest, just getting back to the car before the rain started. We stayed the night and enjoyed a great supper.
My nephew hosted a party on Monday and on the Tuesday we were guests at my wealthy painting pal's gorgeous home. He has been unwell too and instead of having the usual house full of about 50 guests there was about 20 or so (those who called up to ask how he was). It was lovely. Chili, wines, Stilton and vintage port.
I have started a new painting, part of the double commission mentioned previously. I will show you some progress when worth seeing. Also a book illustration job, started early last year has revived from the author's dormant state so that must be revitalised. It's pen and ink and virtually finished - just wanting the rough edges removed.
