Ever since I saw the film Ghost I have been in love with the mechanical magic of the potters wheel.

However, my attempts to make an ashtray to impress my friends with have fallen well below the desired level and have actually appeared pornographic once glazed and fired.

Can anyone recommend any night school classes or private tuition?

Or do you too love the feel of soft clay running through your fingers? Why not tell us about it on here?

Oh Dear !

Can a Mod please lock this thread?

A sort of " Potters Bar!"

The whole board's going off the rails!

Besides I think it's perfectly acceptable to have a place on here for the discussion of arts and crafts.

PMSL

Whaen artex was the rage in the early 80's I helped a mate who was artexing my folks house. There is nothing I have come across that is as sensual as a bucket of warm artex. Clay might be if it was warmed up, but it's normally just cold, sticky muck. It has stayed in fashion a bit longer granted.

I believe there is, just ask any responsible dog owner (particularly on a cold morning)

These seem very like the 'quality of' threads on southstander!

I know. It's just a shame nobody has the literary knowledge to start a thread on, say, the works of Dennis Potter. The Singing Detective could conceivably find our form for Friday...

A finer sound engineer you'll not find anywhere else in the West End...

I thought about it but just the thought of the singing detective brings back bad memories of when I caught Impetigo when I was a kid.

You bet ya!

If ever you are in Colchester and need a plumber Mick is your man...

I knew you hillbillies were very fond of your Staffies but that sort of behaviour is obscene.

Potter was genuinely shocked when I told him...

It would appear that the suspense is bringing about collective insanity on this forum.

At least I'll never succumb to such nonsense.

btw, why haven't we offered Worrincy a new and upgraded contract? and isn't it about time the board raided the club's investment portfolio to put a roof over all the terraces?

We could probably just about afford a shed.

Then we could Potter about in it...

Yes you've guessed it, with the school holidays approaching you and your children might want to get some relief from the endless fevered debate about whether or not it's Potter, for those of you who remember a time before Potter, I give you the following... www.librarything.com/groups/positivelynotpotter

You don't mean......................Gasp! a Potting Shed????

Why have these three threads been merged?







I know how Mystic Edward feels being bullied by the mods now!!!

They were three entirely different threads (one a place to discuss making things out of clay, one a place to discuss a Colchester based plumber and the other a place to discuss the West End's premier sound design engineer) and according to the Mods themselves OT conversation is ok on this board.

Why then is it all merged together and labelled insanity? What an abuse of power!!!!

Cause I'd rather stay here
With all the madmen
Than perish with the sadmen roaming free
And I'd rather play here
With all the madmen
For I'm quite content they're all as sane as me

It was all merged together because I am unsavoury character who hates you all. I am hoping to get you all in one place (not Odsal obviously as half of you don't actually go wa wa waaah) and kill you.

I hope that clarifies matters.
