Im looking forward to our trip on Tuesday to Brantwood with Amanda Ravetz in your ailing car. I planning on taking something to infuse with Ruskin aura, perhaps its this new melamine bowl bought for the Ruskin Studio; Wedgewood may well be turning in his grave at the thought of quality Jasperware being kitsch'd up. I am presuming that Wedgewood and Ruskin would like one another and would have admired each others ambition, but perhaps on more reflection Ruskin would have not found him Gothic[page 151] enough.
I also thought it might be a good opportunity to collect something for the Press and make a layer up for that - from the source as it were. Perhaps we collect just the air or do we send a postcard back to the studio, like this one i found on ebay from the Ruskin school in Heacham to the house/museum in Walkley - " weather quite good on the whole".
