>Hi Ju,

Hi again Rita :-)

> Have just seen your latest e-mail, and yesterday's one as well. I am so glad you answer with my mail (I've forgotten the name for this process)

Depending on the email programme you're using, it's just a question of hitting "reply" (somewhere in the pull-down menu).

>as it helps me see where I've misled you by writing too quick. I often say that my mouth goes quicker than my brain, now it's my fingers.

LOL :-)

btw, I correct the typos for the website to make it more accessible for visually impaired readers.

>Right then, when l asked about paint etc. l thought that you may have had information via net. It may not be something that you can pick up on the high street.

It's certainly a thought . . . I think that an art shop might be a good place to look, though - if you were in London, I'd say the London Graphic Centre. I strongly suspect that the phosphorescent paint for my brace came from an art supply shop.

>Looks like you have to be really organised, or inventive re shopping and cooking, or go hungry, are you a veggie?

I'm not a veggie, because I can't tolerate egg or cows' dairy products very well, so I'd have to be a vegan, and for that you have to be able to cook, which I can't (deep-rooted psychological resistance). I don't exactly go hungry, because my medication suppresses my appetite, but I don't eat very well, for sure. I've been religiously taking supplements for the past two months, something I used to do that became too expensive a couple of years ago, but my doctor thought that malnutrition might have something to do with my latest fracture from falling over in the house not healing properly (it has now, so perhaps he was right). One problem is that I hate prepackaged food, so prefer beans on toast and tinned spaghetti to ready meals - which tend to have very few calories in anyway. I have to say that I ate very well indeed in Helsinki, though - gourmet food is something that I definitely enjoy!

>Here l am again, explaining myself, when l said 'I am not quite sure what we will do with it, etc. l meant after the exhibition.

It's okay, I know what you meant! Well, perhaps someone will buy it - if not now, then later on - so we should aim to store it with that in mind.

>I think your ideas are great, and kick myself for not thinking of them first.

Well, I think we think of them together, somewhere along the line. They're certainly different from my usual work; I don't think of them as coming from me alone.

>I am now sitting in the hut with the heating on and the door open, the smell of the silicon finish fills the air as it dries out.

So you have a splitting headache, basically?

>Birds are whistling in trees opposite, but is marred by the occasional jet going past very fast.

Nice image :-)

>I will go for a walk on site and look at the feet, leaving the smell behind for a while. Be in touch soon.

Try to resist the temptation to move the stones - I don't think it needs it, and it sounds like too much work! And anyway, the real traces will be left when the work is dismantled . . .

I'm off to do my dance memories photo-shoot with Ashley now, but will be back tomorrow.

Love
