2006  EVENTS
This year I have taken a sabbatical from doing too many shows myself, rather I have participated more in other artist's projects. I have started to built up a page of the artwork I have sent instead. 

One sad development has been the loss of the Cafe Esperanza as a Mail Art venue, unfortunately it has been sold and I haven't managed to persuade the new owners of the advantages of displaying Mail Art or indeed any art at all.

The Shopping Trolley Gallery - UK has been doing the rounds as usual, with renewed energy.

Then the traditional tea and scones at the village tea shop

Bosham, ( pronounced Bossum, such is the English tongue ) is a village and port in the South coast of England, near Portsmouth. Now a yachting marina it was once a naval centre and a fishing port.  Its Saxon church is in a scene in the Bayeux tapestry showing  King Harold worshiping before setting sail to visit William in Normandy in 1064. In the facsimile of the tapestry ( a drawing of which is on the right) that hangs in Bosham Church the king is seen pushing what appears to be an early version of the Shopping Trolley Gallery, possibly carrying the royal arms.
