EVENING AT GILLIAN’S

“It was heartening to have so many come for a chat in Gillian’s deep autumn red painted lounge / gallery on Wednesday evening.
The talk ranged from pets, sculptures, making moulds, Gillian’s art on the wall to the fire and weather.
Just a normal get together.
Thanks Gillian for hosting such a lovely comfortable evening”. (Editor)
