I love factories!

I love printing factories and potteries, and last week I got to visit both all in one go, in Stoke on Trent. I think I love them so much because of my college days of being in the print room all the time, and the fact that the machines and utensils, switches and screens, are all being used. I get a wonderful sense of purpose in a factory, things getting made, jobs getting done, Lovely!

I am going to see if I can dig up some other factories for my pleasure.

A day in Broadstairs for my son Sam's birthday.

We caught the train down to the East coast for the day (speedy gonsalez from St Pancras). I got all the boys to make paper aeroplanes on the journey...... and we nearly forgot to photograph them flying off the pier!

I am working on a project (which I will tell you about soon) where I need paper aeroplanes, so the boys came up with some great options, and we had multi colours..... I see a rainbow of paper planes ... coming soon :)
