Preparations begin

Artist's chair

Another June arrives and another summer seems to be busy elsewhere.  Perhaps that's why I have been suffering from a profound lethargy, which has dogged me since my return from foreign parts.

However, despite my state of mind, preparations for the exhibition are moving on regardless and this week, Jen came up from London to begin the task of writing the blurb for the catalogue.

She scribbled diligently for three hours, whilst Johnny recounted his life history.  It's hard work listening and writing and Johnny's deafness and quiet speech don't help.

'So it was an arts and crafts shop your father had?' Jen checked.
'No,' replied Johnny, 'he died of a heart attack'.
