Well I'm back after two very disappointing weeks in Tunisia (long boring story). The first thing I did was to go to the auction page. Disappointed. I'm hoping there will be a flurry of bids towards the end. Some bidders are going to get some unique works of art very cheaply otherwise. It would be a pity if Beatrice's work didn't get the reward that it deserves. I go back into work tomorrow to find out if I still have a job. What a strange work year this has been. Made redundant, taken back on immediately on more money (the accountants suddenly realised what I do - oops!), firm's future still iffy through lack of confidence in the market. C'est la vie. I'm starting to earn as an artist and a photographer. I now have self-employed status, keeping tax records and stuff. What a topsy turvy year. Oh for a bit of boring predictability...
