Caught between doing the necessary admin to increase project awarenss and making the work. I have now started the second section at least – using two old OS maps of the area I have approximated the region that corresponds to todays postal code (N10). i am still tinkering about with the first, contemporary section though- adding paper worked on by locals at the “Map-Me” activities I have run and small detail cuts of the area.
At times I feel thoroughly overwhelmed by the project – masses of paper in the house and my shed, some worked on other bits waiting to be used. I feel a certain level of anxiety about the amount I still have to do with the school holidays approaching and a week long residency at Muswell Hill Library in August coming up the every spare moment counts. the kids are both in the bath as I am updating this! I suspect i will manage it, but at times it all seems a bit crazy. Not the least is the prospect of putting together a book on the project too…
This isn’t a moan though. There are times when i could not be happier! In the shed dancing about working on it listening to some Ska. Enough said!
