So last night we were very tired and I forgot to Blog! Sorry! But I am now, its only 10am here, but I know at home its much later 2pm.

JAM UPDATE: new flavour, peach! Very good!!

Yesterday we worked in a large team of two transport logistics men, 4 of the museum restoration staff and Grace and I to remove 49 photographs from their existing frames. This involved a lot of unscrewing on average about 12 screws on each frame, removing the photo and then putting all the screws back again, so it took all day to do around 35 frames between Grace and myself.

The photos had been on loan to a museum in The Dominican Republic and had to be unpacked by the logistics men before we could remove the photographs. All the photographs were of Brazil and by Brazilian artist.

So I have just simply uploaded a selection of photographs from the day, as there is not much else to say about un-framing!
