Inspirations



I have always loved History, Literature and Art.........................................................................................................
beautiful things, the stuff of dreams..................................................

flowers, butterflies, fairy tales, embroidered fragments, Chinese blues, Botticelli angels, Blake's visions, Burne-Jones pictures............................................................................................

amongst many other hints and wisps of the past..........................

to catch in my net and weave into mydesigns..................

which I hope others might find as beautiful as their inspirations.

3 visits to P.C. World and 2 printers later...............

Finally able to print again! My much beloved Canon MP 470 is on its last legs after many years of over use for my degree. Thoiught it would be a simple job to get a newer version of the same thing.....

IT is never that easy!!!! Spent over 2 evenings on the internet, two visits to P.C. world, one especially to see the Canon rep, all to no avail.  The amazing high tech printers DON'T come with detailed information to allow you to find out, before buying, what they can do! Also PC World only has a fraction of their stock plugged in and full of ink.....and guess what.?...they are some of the most expensive. Although the ill informed so called experts were all lovely and did their best I still ended up  having to race back to the shop last night , just before closing to swop the one I was told would do the job....and didn't ....for one that is more or less....... (and of course is twice the price with 5 inks not 2)......................

............I am still looking for a working 470 on e-bay......
