Someone has gone into my space and tampered with the box; they tried to remove the protective film that is covering the mirror. They had no right to do this; interfering with other peoples work, bloody cheek of them. On a brighter note, Gillian came up to the studios today with some excess paints, which I gladly accepted. Connie appeared around noon fair play to him (to be honest, I had my doubts as to whether he would show today). He attached the wheels and adjusted the door; he also added a shelf, and hey presto.... it is finished. A couple of points which I had failed to consider: the addition of the wheels has made it considerably bigger, also, the combination of the medite and mirror has made the piece very heavy. Perhaps in the summer I could re construct it using lighter materials.
Carried on preparing the space; more filling, sanding, painting.

Spent another day getting the space ready; sanding, painting etc. No sign of my box; mentioned it to Richard who said to ask Des as to the whereabouts of the elusive Connie; Des said he would send him up, he didn't arrive until the evening, only to say that he will bring it tomorrow. Had the camera and video booked out again today with the intention of getting some footage of the box downtown; hope he brings box early in morning.

Spent the day filling in holes and cracks etc. I know it is not a gallery setting that we have, nonetheless, we still want to try and have as good a finish as we can; the downside to this is that it is so time consuming. Connie has my box made, and was to call back for the mirror, which he never did. I had the video camera booked out for today, but was unable to make use of it because of not having got the box yet; I have it booked out for tomorrow again, I hope he can do it tomorrow morning; it is getting very late in the day now.

Went in Saturday too; just carried on getting the space ready. Not quite sure if it is appropriate for the students to be filling, sanding, and painting the studio spaces in ready for the degree show, as we have enough work to occupy our time. I have "appropriated" some more items. I cannot be too specific at this stage as I fear it be to the detriment of my position here at this point in time. When the time is right, I will divulge my dastardly plan (LOL in an insane madman type of way).
