A leisurely artistic lunch







The students (and partners) of Jan's art class got together today for an exhibition of their work and for an al fresco lunch. Everybody brought something to eat so there was tons of tasty food and some interesting conversation. I sat next to Brian S, who I like, and he came out with all kinds of interesting information. He played Rugby League for Great Britain and, because he was involved in organising part of his trip, he met Pope John Paul 2 when he visited the UK a few years back. Fascinating stuff, if you're into that sort of thing. He also gave me some salacious gossip about one of the Royal's protection officers, who he knows. Lunch started at 14.00 and finished at about 17.00.



Two of the photographs above don't do justice to Jan's ability, but they are examples of some of the paintings that were shown.
