Hi Susan yes it was scary but when I think back on it I laugh...it was the middle of winter and we had a male model...few turned up including my sister who was sick...the model was feeling the cold and left his socks on...that's all just socks...when I told my sister we laughed so hard...it's that thing about men leaving their socks on cunjures up all sorts if images...hope you got your easel put together OK...I nearly said erected but thought better off it

Thank you Patsy for the birthday wishes, yes I am a nurse. Your episode with the easel sounds a bit scary.

Happy Birthday Susan hope you have a good one even if you have to work it...are you a nurse? your shifts sound long...I know mine were as a nurse way back when...sounds like lunch might have been better than art class...I havn't got an easel yet...I had one in the past but gave it away could kick myself...it was a metal one with telescopic legs great always balanced really well...I had a bad experience with a wooden one falling on me in the middle of life class...needless to say the nude was awful

That thing about easels...big box arrives full of bits...a bag of fasteners...a spring a ball-bearing...and No instructions...yep been there too...wine? don't mind if I do...thank you ma'am
