Hello Folks,
My name is Terry Cotter. I’m a potter.
I have been potterising for nearly two decades now. I stock a wide range of ceramic goods in my shop The Potter’s Reel, down here in Lower Swell. The shop is named after my potter’s wheel which goes round and round. Like a reel.
Since my last Column I’ve concentrated on making mug handles. I will make some mugs next.
So, without further ado here are some reviews of some of my favourite bits from the world they call “Art”.
1. Painting
Sunflowers - I like this painting. It has some flowers in a vase. Don’t like the vase very much though. Vince cut his ear off later on. That must have smarted.
2. Movies
Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid - A western set in the west of America. Goes on a bit though. Has that song in it. The one about rain. Never figured it out to be honest.
3. Music
Chopin’s Polonaise in A flat major – lovely bit of ivory tinkling here. Goes on a bit though. He’s right up there with Liberace in my opinion.
4. Literature
Crime and punishment by Dostoevsky - A Russian bloke commits a crime, gets caught and is punished. Goes on a bit though.
5. Mime
Finally I would like to give a big shout out for the upcoming Lower Swell mime festival. It’s in the Post Office next Wednesday.
‘Til next time – The Wheel Keeps On Turning!

Cheers Sue – just back from my Olympic holding camp. Camp holding? Inmanesque methinks.
I wonder if the mime will go on a bit though. Do update us on the mime situation in your next update.
Will do!
“Goes on a bit though.” Hahaha, love it. More reviews of things!
He’s busy with his mugs at the moment but i am sure there a few more in the pipeline.
Agreed. Reviews are top.
The Bible- God creates the world; tells a snake off; asks a bloke to murder his son then tells him not to; gets a man to put some animals on a boat; burns a bush, frees the Jews then tells them to kill everyone; impregnates a woman then gets one of the staff to tell her about it later; kills his son; destroys the world, in the future. Goes on a bit.
Nicely put!
Loved it.. GFB your characters are the best in the blogosphere
Cheers – nice to see you again!
Ginger, this potter he goes on a bit though, doesn’t he
He does Cap’n, he does.
Dear Sir or Madam:
“Finally I would like to give a big shout out for the upcoming Lower Swell mime festival. It’s in the Post Office next Wednesday.” Har, har, har. (I mean, hands holding stomach in a quiet chuckle.)
Good!
A mimes gingers?
Maybe!
