My feet hurt (sorry Peter for using your phrase) as I spent the morning delivering our new leaflets. I delivered over 150 in glorious sunshine and spoke to a few people who said that they had heard of us and that they will make the effort to call in.
I also should have had my running shoes on as I was attacked twice by two very irate dogs!! Why is it that they let you in to the garden/drive and then sneak up on you and try to bite you?
I finally got back to the gallery and Diane casually over a cup of tea (I would have preferred a bowl of hot water for my feet!) announces that she has had a VIP calling into the gallery to have a browse and a chat. I am not at liberty to say who it is as they would like to keep their visit quiet.
We seem to be attracting VIP's as this is our second VIP visit within a week as we had a VIP visitor last Saturday! It's not what you know but who you know!!

Lambing It Large!!!
This week has been busy, we have had 75 people through the door and our latest marketing campaign has started to work!!
We have had 10,000 leaflets published promoting the Acorn Gallery on one side and Pocklington on the reverse. After brow beating the kids into helping deliver them we got our first customer in on Saturday! Well I suppose I should give the kids some pocket money for their efforts!!
We also had a very nice family in from Norfolk this week (hello to Rob, Michelle & the boys) who after much discussion and thought bought 6 pieces from me to which I say a big THANKYOU. I hope you enjoy them and I hope to see you all again next year!!!
Today Diane & I and the kids went to visit our friends who have a small holding consisting of cows, chickens and baby lambs. Diane and my daughter throughly enjoyed themselves holding and feeding the lambs and Diane was in her element taking 90 photo's! My daughter has suddenly re-owned me with a "daddy if you love me..." she only wanted me to bring two home!! I have to point out that we do not own two baby lambs so I am dis-owned again, it's not easy being a parent!!
We finished our day off with a very nice lunch at The Tanglewood on the A64 which is between Malton and York. Whilst I sit here typing this the snow is begining to fall and the house is in silence except for Sampson (the dog) snoring!!
