Nearly there !

Two long set building days later .......

The sweat shop set up again in Room 1 with Calm Woman, Neat Woman, Girl and I all in attendance. Four dresses, aprons, bonnets, collars and cuffs later.....we packed up the sewing machines - at about 7:30pm in time for the tech rehearsal for both plays.

Setman drove all the the way from Milverton on Saturday am to join us for the weekend and help finish the set.

Girl and I both "had faces on" when Emma and Secretary took the beautifully clean, freshly made clothes and distressed them with teabags, mud and fake blood to make them look like we'd been languishing in a prison cell for months.

Producer Him spent the majority of the time asking "how long things would take to be finished?"

Ex Wizard brought down new baby wizard (well, witch actually, I suppose, technically (11 days old, very small and very, very cute).

I had sewing machine overload by the end of the two days and was looking for volunteers for a neck & shoulder massage - none forthcoming within a 200 mile radius. Spoilsports.

Drank far too much tea and ate far too many Haribo, although I did circum to a pint of Strongbow when the sewing was done - It must be show week!!!!!!!
