A mad dash round the house getting stuff together when I woke up. A bus into town (listening to a Paco Underhill interview on my MPlayer) followed by an hour at CIT doing my first lino print:
I'm rather pleased.Laura from the day class showed me how to use the the big scary looking printing machine thingy:
(I wish I was doing day class)Then I trotted back across town to Craft ACT. Where I did a stock take of all the lovely things in the store
had an interesting discussion on wristwarmers with Barb (Executive Director) and Ruth Hingston (knitter and designer) 
At lunchtime I popped into the Civic Library (of course) and bumped into the Manager who gave me a stack of free magazines they're de accessioning. All arty and designy. Yay! More things to read! (Oh, hang on a mo...)After lunch I was part of a meeting to discuss Re-Loved 2. Which will be held at Craft ACT on Thursday, October 22nd. Mark your diaries now.
( I'm beyond excited to have the opportunity to be part of it from behind the scenes.)At the end of the day I chatted with Barb about my course. Braved the cold and caught the bus home. Staggered to my freezer for a little Freezer Roulette. And, after this post, will be heading to the kettle to fill the hottie and straight to bed.
Rock and Roll...

I love the pear print. I am so envious of your artistic eye. My brain hurts just thinking about reversing the light for a lino cut.
