Hi Everyone,

I hope that you all had a lovely Christmas and are having a good new year! We certainly needed some time off over the Christmas period, we worked right up to Christmas eve, the last few nights of work were into the early hours and we were exhausted. I don’t think  we had a day off for the last 4 months, we have kept going every day, i think this has been our busiest year on record. We are set to be busy this year too with a full client list for both of us which is good as the economy certainly seems to be unstable still.

I have done some yearly updates to my site, a new shopping cart which isn’t quite finished, and a general new look which I always like to do this time of year just to make things fresh, but nothing too major.

I have however done a much needed overhaul to the London Art College website. It really needed to be done last year but with the changes they had planned and time being short it didn’t get done. I have spent some time on it and now have uploaded it today. We now have a London Art College Forum, an Art News Blog, and fresh new look to the main site. If any of my students or London art college students are reading this, you are more than welcome to go and join and say hi. Because its so new I am the only one to have written on there so far so we need some members to get it going!

Its very cold here in Wales, we have had frosts galore and our water to the house froze this morning and also the connector between the gas bottle outside to our cooker hob too. Luckily we have the wood burner to cook on if needed, and the electric oven so we can always get by even in a power cut. We had a friend stay for New Year and whilst cooking a roast the gas hob stopped working so we still managed. It was quite fun actually!

Well its getting late now, its Sunday night and its half 9, this is probably not the best way to have a first day back to work in 2009 but at least i have got loads done today. Hopefully will be able to start drawing tomorrow!

Happy New year!
