And I've also seen her skull collection along with her 'people' she designed and made for the Salt Aire open house and art festival. What's great is how much of a different thinker Lynette is to me. She's open to a meeting of minds and offering an alternate perspective - she doesn't let you forget the detail. Such a nice post to have written about her!

And oh dear Imran, sorry if I looked blank on Tuesday - I did actually remember you, though I admit it's a rather fuzzy image/memory I have - well I think you do look quite different these days! But on Tuesday it was more that my brain had just been battered by the problems with the room set up and internet access at the start of that seminar. So I was still in recovery when we were chatting and I forgot all the things I'd wanted to ask you - about all the things you've been up to for the past 15 years - Linda was telling me a bit and it all sounded so interesting - I'm seriously impressed and would like to talk some more.
