I jest ye not, RG. The very same Celia of which you speak called round to my house about teatime to collect a painting of the Hawk Stone wot she asked me to paint for her. I've posted it to this site. She is indeed a dude. She admired all my cats, too and made nice comments about my paintings.
And then, sadly missing the lovely Celia by only 20 minutes, the splendid Mr Teague swang by and told me of his wanderings around Avebury today. He had come to pick up a painting of Doll Tor wot he'd asked me to paint for him, (also posted to this site.) He once told me my paintings were "Quoit nice", which made me smile.
Marvellous! How lucky I am to have met such nice people through this medium. I greatly look forward to the Devils Quoits visit in order to meet more lovely people... and maybe even you, too! :-)
