willow sculpture

we have had a busy week so far. we were at Bydales School, Marske for 4 days working with students to create a small herd of deer for the school's outdoor classroom. we stayed on a campsite at Redcar which was a bad move as the site was very exposed and the wind was so stong that we were worried that the tent would rip apart in the night. but we did visit some fantastic places after school. we had a great bar meal at Sandsend which is a fantastic place with a lovely coastal valley with lovely cottages with flower-filled gardens. after a sitting in the sun having a beer we travelled on the Runswick Bay which is a fantastic small fishing village near to Saltburn. Saltburn used to be our favourite place in the Middlesborough area but now we are spoilt for choice.
Today we started setting up our stand at Tatton Park RHS Flower Show and al;so installed a willow arch in a back-to-back garden designed by Bridge College, Stockport.

The weather looks pretty grim for the show but we have our fingers crossed.
