It was a hot morning last Friday at Pot-Fest - a celebration of clay - held at Haughley Park near Wetherden - not many miles from home. (Also held in a few other places in the country during the year)
I didn't stay long as the dusty grass made me cough. Just long enough to admire the 100+ potters showing and selling their creations.
Raku firing - we know what it is thanks to The Great Pottery Throw Down which will be back for series 10 early in 2027.
It would be very easy to spend several £1,000 - no trouble at all!
The potters come from all around the country with all sorts of different things. There were lots of people looking at everything.. and being in the way of good photos ..... so just a few of some of the things on show.

Last year I got the bird seed feeder on a stake for the garden and this year I spent even less and bought this below.

It has a use - can you guess what? It's less than 2 inches tall and wide and I really could use a dozen. But being sensible and still trying to spend less............ saving for a possible home move sometime, just one came home with me.
Answer tomorrow!
And just for comparison this is how green the grass was at the same time last year at Haughley Park
I thought about candle snuffer but you wouldn't need a dozen!
