Yes, the install is going well. Posters and large decal printed - the window in library looks good. As does the cabinets although some are rather tall and not really suited to small flat works.

I think I might be a tad jealous . . .

It went well thanks Mary Anne - better than expected. Quite a few there and some from as far away as Fife and Cardiff. One chap I'd not seen for 50+ years who I was at artschool with!  A bit nerve  wracking having to read a poem ( that Roger Radio wrote especially ) as it was National Poetry Day. Mark Pawson was there too and did an excellent potted history of mail art and opened the exhibition.

I was with you in spirit- hope it went as well as you expected.  Not quite as stressful as an exhibition of one's own work but still; I do not envy you the glimpse of a life laid out on the walls around you . . .
