Day 2 of the degree show preperation… duh duh duhhhhhh! (dramatic sound) I am in my new space…
You forget the mammoth task which is ahead before you can even begin finishing (or in my case starting) the work you want to present! I am most grateful for a couple of my friends who were willing to get down and dusty with me!
Hired a car which Gump could drive and we went to B&Q but alas, the mirror wardrobe doors that I was looking for were out of stock, so off we went to the next B&Q along the Kingsway, only to end up out of Dundee, pretty much in Invergowrie!!! Oops! Eventually met our destination, only for them to be also out of stock! There was a glimmer of hope as they told me Perth had 3 in stock, so into the car park to make a telesales, only for them to tell me after waiting for infinity on hold, that they too are now out of stock! Who knew so many people in the Tayside area would be needing cheap B&Q value mirrored wardrobe doors!!! Damn you!
Thought best to cut my losses short, and head back to the studio, where there was sanding, scrubbing and painting to be done. Thank you Brian for the amazing sanding job on the wall of rubber (?) As a treat, when we were being thrown out we went to get ice cream and drove to the beach! yahoo! And double surprise, went to the ice cream place, saw really cool sundae glasses behind the counter, and enquired if they were for purchase! Lo and behold, they are replacing them with fancy handblown glass thingys, so he gave me 2 for FREE!!!! Good things come to those wait (also could be he felt sorry for the girl covered in dust, paint and somwwhat dragged through bush hair!)
