This was almost the first sunny week end since May. I can imagine you have the inverse problem. <br /><br />I will take pics of the new studio as soon as I'm set up, but we are not there yet. English rules - when it comes to moving houses - are rather crazy as you can't be sure of anything until you actually have the keys of the house. So I'm keeping my fingers crossed! Hope you're well.

Le piano est un petit peu "en pause" car avec un boulot à temps plein et cette passion pour la peinture, il faut faire des sacrifices. Par contre je me réjouis d'emménager dans la nouvelle maison car je pourrai enfin avoir la place pour un "vrai" piano (jusqu'à présent en Angleterre je n'ai que mon clavinova...). Cela me redonnera probablement l'envie de m'y remettre vraiment! A bientot j'espère!

Great to have as a memory to keep. Interesting approach with (or rather without the specs). Not an option for me as I'm long sighted so I can't see things close up...mind you...could lead to some 'happy accidents' :)Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17909161522406304080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3504788645535827601.post-3860029712232178002012-07-26T15:38:05.014+01:002012-07-26T15:38:05.014+01:00And a fantastic job you have done of it too Valeri...And a fantastic job you have done of it too Valerie.
