June 14th
My bike ride into work was great today! I forgot to mention yesterday that I fixed 2 punctures and removed 2 huge thorns from my rear wheel. :( I also cleaned up the sprocket set, derailleur and sorted the brakes. I don’t know why I haven’t done it sooner!
I did some slip casting today. Really awkward shape - lots of annoying things such as a vacuum of slip always getting trapped in the same place and splitting occurring at the base every time. I think I’ve overcome it but won’t know until the pieces are bone dry and fired. Ho hum.
Tomorrow night is the opening night of my student’s final year exhibition. It’s a dress up and party type affair so I’m going to do my best to take some dressy clothes in on my bike in the morning so I can get changed at work in the evening. If I can’t fit it all in I’ll have to give up and come home in the afternoon.
