ARGH!

James has had flu since the weekend. I have a rough, sore claggy throat. GLARE!

In happier news, I live in the best suburb ever.

I came home to find a lump of something cold wrapped in plastic in the letterbox. I checked for cables*, then lifted it out. It was a lump of clay. There was a brochure to explain it. This years public art festival is celebrating the horse, and they would like everyone to sculpt little horses, which will then be fired and displayed in October.

In addition, we will have horse and cart rides on October 11 and a horse parade on October 18!

Now all I need to do is not succumb to the flu, and learn how to sculpt in the next few days!

* My family do law and politics and I am from the 70s and 80s, this is automatic, much the same way that years of living in Australia sees me shake out my shoes every morning.

ugh, this flu thing must be international or sommat cause i have it too and it is no fun!

Horse sculpting sounds like it may be fraught with hilarity and i would totally have checked for wires too.

I am hoping to discover inner talent. That or an amusing way to depict my lack of talent!
