2024 in Pisticci..Nice full day…..

By 9am I had done the washing, had breakfast, hoovered and was in the process of ” fixing ” a stone bunch of grapes. ( At least I think that’s what they are supposed to be.)

The heat must have made bits crack and fall off.
Using ready made plaster I stuck everything back together. ( that horrible image underneath was carved out of a tufa block and is supposed to be me.)
This was supposed to be James  . My stone carving leaves a lot to be desired! But it was nice to have us on either side of the door.

I’ll probably paint the plastered bits grey,  though I’ve considered painting the whole thing purple. 

It was another lovely warm day. No heating needed all day….not even now.

I thought that I’d better replace the plaster I used so went off out and bought another 2 pots. Very useful and satisfying stuff.

I always like this view.

Home sweet home.

And this afternoon I’ve been painting Sapri again.

Work in progress

Then Italian friends dropped by with cake.

Yummmm

There’s  a procession tonight. I might go and watch…..or not. If I can find it. The thing with processions is that they rarely begin on time and then they are always moving…… This one I think goes all around the churches in the town.

In the meantime I’ll have cake and wine.

Cheers🍷🍷
