Bottoms Up

Back from a much-needed and very enjoyable week's holiday in Rhodes; the day before we flew,I fired #3 crystal glaze kiln,leaving the pots to cool for a week. When we returned,they separated from their catchers with barely a tap,so clean that they don't even need the angle-grinder to tidy them up- a couple of minutes with a grinding-stone and diamond paper get them smooth as a baby's bottom.
