ANNIE'S DIARY 9 JUNE 2009

June has arrived already and l am recovering from an operation on my hand. I have been experimenting with my left hand and have done some “interesting drawings”. I think everyone should try it - you never know - you may have hidden talents . . .

The next couple of months are going to be very interesting as there are many events going on - starting with the South East Open Studios from June 6th - 21st. There are so many talented people out there!!! Visit their website to find out more.

Freddie Frog has just jumped out of the kiln and will be accompanying me to various workshops during the Summer. I am looking forward to working with pupils at Elham School.

As well as working with the school there is a “PlayDay” on July 11th when l will be demonstrating pottery and taking names for Summer Holiday Workshops sponsored by “Play for Elham”.

On July 18th and 19th there is an event called Medieval Folkestone. The title speaks for itself but there will be walks, talks, food, music, tile making, puppetry and lots more . . . On June 28th many Art Societies conglomerate in Folkestone to hang there work on The Leas Railings. It is a lovely day - great atmosphere. So if you have a free hour, l highly recommend it!!

We are still hoping to create a Sculpture Trail at The Visitors' Centre in New Romney so if you have any design ideas either contact me or Steve at The Visitors' Centre.

Last night l walked around the garden and was delighted to see a family of blue tits having flying lessons in the trees. They make such a lovely noise - so excited to be mobile. The swallows are also getting ready to make their first flight from the nests in the eaves of one of the outbuildings - so it’s all happening - wonderful!!

TALES OF TED

A series of books about Ted, his flock of sheep and Sid, his faithful dog.

Ted is one of the Lookers or shepherds born on Romney Marsh.

He lives in one of the tiny dwellings called Lookers’ Huts. Ted has one lamb called Pet who lives in the hut with him.

Pet’s Mother was very sick when he was born so Ted took him into The Hut to care for him. Pet decided never to grow up so that he could stay in the hut with Ted and Sid.

Two particular sheep feature in the stories- Bloomers, who is the oldest member of the flock and Sox, her daughter. They are real characters and get up to lots of mischief throughout the stories . . .
