I'm going to have a seaweed plate sale on here on Sunday evening 6pm
These were a part of what I thought was my last kiln load before we moved house (and studio) Unfortunately we were told a few days before the move that it wasn't going to happen for another month. So having packed up the entirety of my studio, I now need to recreate my workspace to continue working. 😳 Haven't quite found my mojo to do that yet (suspect I packed it along with most of our house 🤣)
Completely first world problems.. but slightly knocked me back.
If you fancy any of these, tune in here on Sunday 27th at 6pm

Actually if you fancy the two tone orange and green plates you can just go to my website which I'll be adding them to now! 👍😊

Who watched last night?
Available on iplayer if you missed it.

"We are at a turning point. What happens next is up to every single one of us"

A tough watch but I feel so so necessary for us all to face the truth of where we are and what is ahead. Ignoring it and focusing on what feels more immediate, more pressing simply allows more business as usual. My mother in law was asking me yesterday why we, the public haven't been informed properly, why it's not on the front pages and on the news all the time. Good question Audrey. She was I think angry and she has been telling her friends and neighbours to watch this program. She has spent the last year or so feeling worried and probably embarrassed at my involvement in XR but is now seeing that our government is not doing what is needed. XR shouldn't have to be thinking up ways of highlighting the climate emergency, they shouldn't have to be disrupting and protesting because of the woeful inaction of our leaders. Scientists have been telling successive governments for 30 years to no avail. I don't know what a television programme can do but I do know we All need to be informed properly. Thankyou @david_attenborough you are a legend

Back in my workshop finishing last few pieces to go in final kiln load before we move house. The return to solitude and calm fiddling about with clay and paper and slips has been recuperative. When we get to our new home I need to build a new workshop (not singlehandedly 🤣) so it will be a while before I can start work again.

Saturday was the end of #lightshipgreta 's journey

Saturday was the end of #lightshipgreta 's journey from Brighton to London.
We left Brixton with the route agreed and allowed by both police and council. At Kennington 20 or more police vans turned up with between 150 - 200 officers who surrounded Greta the lightship and Blooming Adur (the plucky little support boat from Shoreham by Sea 🧡)
We had been moving peacefully towards the destination agreed, at no point breaking any laws. We kept the traffic moving and disruption to a minimum. The police action blocked traffic for well over 4 hours. I cannot begin to imagine how much it cost us taxpayers...
This was a Wholly peaceful protest to highlight the climate and ecological emergency. The effects of which will have a hugely disproportionate impact on the global south. Vast amounts of land will become uninhabitable (already happening) and hundreds of thousands of people will be homeless and on the road. Those communities will have done little if anything to create the climate crisis and yet will suffer the most. UK is one of the richest countries in the world (5th I think.. ?) and look at the way our government reacts to a handful of dingys of desperate refugees trying to seek refuge here. I fear for the future.
Just to be really clear our small crew was made up of mostly professional people and who'd taken holiday to do this. We couldn't even attempt to stop the police from kettling Greta because the vast majority couldn't risk arrest.
Priti Patel is moving to make XR an "organised crime group"
This would be hilarious if it weren't so frightening.
The nurses, teachers, grannies, doctors, builders, social workers, lawyers, artists, councillors etc etc that I know make up XR are simply people who care deeply about the future of humanity.
They just give a shit.
They give enough of a shit to give up their free time, to be unpopular despite being sensitive, gentle humans. Is it not time to stand up to our government who wish to criminalise people for standing up for future generations?

7 extraordinary days on the road with #lightshipgr

7 extraordinary days on the road with #lightshipgreta
An abundance of highs and lows. 12 -15 miles a day on average. It was hard and wonderful beyond belief. Pushing/pulling/drumming with this phenomenal bunch of humans has been an immense privilege. Every one of them took holiday from their jobs or studies to make this happen. We went through some pretty cold hearted places and some extraordinarily warm and welcoming places. The met police used intimidation and bullying tactics despite our protest being legal and authorised. On Thursday they delayed us by 2 hours so by dusk we were 3 miles off our destination. It was raining, getting dark, halfway up a hill with police vans tailing us. If we stopped anywhere without permission it would be game over and it was too dangerous continue in the dark. We pulled in to a driveway to discuss options.. The driveway belonged to a travellers community who welcomed us with open arms.
Next day we came through south London and the reception just got warmer and warmer. Thankyou Brixton, your welcome was The Best!! The euphoria of reaching London was immense

Day 2 of Greta the lightship's voyage from Brighto

Day 2 of Greta the lightship's voyage from Brighton to London. I dont have any footage of the journey yet so I'm sharing a picture of two extraordinary women who exemplify for me what is the heart and soul of XR. They are young women with mighty brave hearts and kindness beyond belief. Today they had the role not only of playing in the band and push/pulling but also wellbeing (making sure everyone is ok, looked after). I could write so much about these women, as we march I learn more each day of their lives and it is awe inspiring and humbling. They are heading off to Greece in September to volunteer in the refugee camps. One of them has already spent 6 months on a rescue ship in the Mediterranean (at the age of 23) experiencing stuff that we are all so shielded from. Whilst doing that they will be studying and continuing to do their jobs remotely, as they have been forced to because of covid. I think often there is a perception of XR that is convenient, allows easy dismissal. My experience is a group of people of all ages and nationalities caring so so deeply about the climate crisis and what it is practically going to mean, that they are compelled to Do Something. Not sit at home and criticise. Today was hard, harder even than yesterday, with a helluva lot of challenges, 8 or more hours on the road, very hairy at times and such hard work. But when we rolled into Horsham we were met with such a WELCOME!! So many people applauding and thanking us. Big up Horsham. Tomorrow to Crawley. Xxx

The climate crisis hasn't gone away, the outlook h

The climate crisis hasn't gone away, the outlook hasn't improved. I think we're all aware of this but the immediate horrors so many have to cope with, the pandemic and the utter balls up the government has made of dealing with it, the ongoing murderous atrocities we see against black people in USA which has awakened our understanding of the injustices and systemic racism that exists here, and there is much else to be focused on, that Must be focused on, that diverts us from the biggest crisis of all. Humanity has never faced what we are facing now. As @david_attenborough said "Never before have we had such an awareness of what we are doing to the planet and never before have we had the power to do something about that."
It's overwhelming beyond belief. For me, when I feel hopeless and helpless I have found action is the way through. So I joined @extinctionrebellionbrighton samba band (literally, they'll take anyone 🤣🥁🤣) and I'm walking/pushing/pulling @lightshipgreta from Brighton to London and banging my newly decorated drum along the way. Many many people have suggested it and I am mad but the way I see it, it is a beautiful analogy. Greta the lightship will be sounding the alarm, reminding people of the need to get our government and world leaders to make the changes that only they can in order to minimise the damage to our children's and grandchildren's future. She (the lightship) is Big and Heavy, it will be hard, maybe we won't succeed but the crisis we are facing will be far far harder.
Greta's journey starts tomorrow with a procession in Brighton where there will be a day of protest and raising of awareness with @officialbrightonblm
Come and see us and find out more (we leave pavillion gardens at 12 noon)
Then we set sail from Brighton on Sunday (metaphorically, on the road pushing and pulling 🤪) If you are local... and fancy joing us at any stage of the journey for even an hour, you will recieve a Rapturous Welcome!!!! I'll post more about the journey later. Hopefully see some of you tomorrow 🤞🏼🥁😍
