He likes to sit in his dad's van and travel the Cornish country roads. He's also partial to lamb's hearts (another convert) and breaking wind (according to his dad who has to share the van with him).<br />
So far I have finished the design but yet to print him.

This small Devon-based charity needs your help. They are struggling with finding funds to continue the good work they do in rehoming retired racers (and, sadly, rescuing abused dogs). They are organising a series of on-line auctions so please donate something that can be used to raise money or better still make a bid for a gorgeous Christmas gift!</div>

Skozi, known as Pooh to his friends (short for Pooh-Bah, after the Mikado character) is a 6 six year old retired racer. He was a Poole Stadium dog, rehomed by the <a href="http://dorset.retiredgreyhounds.co.uk/" target="_blank">Dorset RGT</a> three years ago and he's ruled my life ever since. He still enjoys a good run on the beach or open field but is a complete couch potato at all other times.</div>

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Rosie is one of Skozi the Greyhound's (many) girlfriends. She is a lovely border collie (which are also known as sheepdogs) and she lives on the same country estate in East Devon with Laura and Ellen. She is very distinctive with a half white, half black face rather than the usual black face with a white blaze. Stones are her thing - chasing, chewing, herding ..... </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
She will feature on cushions, aprons and tea towels and will be in the on-line shop soon!</div>

So in amongst the leeks and cabbages you can find a chicken cushion, donkey tea towel or cat mug! Tiggi, who runs the charity with a team of volunteers has done a marvellous job in building a really fetching display. It's our first foray into the world of non-internet retail so quite excitied to see how it goes.<br />

Although it stayed fine on the day it was very wet underfoot and very damp and cold in the tent. Partly due to the weather and partly due to a new John Lewis store opening in Exeter attendance was on the poor side. Still, all in a good cause!

Sarah's mum knocked on my workshop door at the start of the summer asking if we could give her daughter Sarah some work experience. Sarah is studying at Plymouth College of Art and Design. So for about 3 months our numbers doubled - i.e there were two of us - which was fun. Sarah proved to be a dab hand at stencil cutting and printing and you can see her handiwork in the Chicken cushions and tea towels, a project I devised to allow her to get her hands dirty - literally. Sarah is back in Plymouth in her final year but I'm hoping she might come back and do some more printing in those long student vacs.Tomato Catshophttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14566140981888872476noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-161265621355777751.post-10114260499883212332012-09-13T23:04:00.000-07:002012-09-14T06:52:47.036-07:00Website now LIVE!After a bit of a slow start, the Tomato Catshop website is now LIVE!
