Here are a few pictures of various family-related events.
There’s space here for a bit of family news as well...
John completed his Creative Writing MLitt course in Glasgow, with a Distinction! Hooray! He’s still working at Edinburgh’s Fruitmarket Gallery. He is continuing to publish poems, such as these and this.
Chris is still enjoying his job in the Cancer Research UK Cambridge Institute, working with complete DNA sequences of patients
Holly has enrolled for a PhD in Dundee, looking at how one can measure the impact of art on families.
Kate is still volunteering at Anglesey Abbey, producing their Community Wall, and also hugely involved in the many Repair Cafés which have been springing up locally.
Mike keeps himself busy with art and music. The art is mostly linocuts. They sort of work but there’s a lot to learn. He is better at starting projects than finishing them unfortunately, so you end up with nothing finished! Oh well...
Holly rigged up a "Congratulations" banner for his M.Litt. graduation
