We’ve been on Radio Sheffield this morning, discussing our reservations about the new housing proposal for the Hepworth site. The interview was just after 7.30. The story is running online too on the BBC News website… bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cr7p…

Housing plan for Hepworth's brick factory in Loxley Valley

The factory closed in the 1990s and the buildings were left to rot amid woodland.

Fruit, nuts and peel have been macerated in porter for a week. Now they’re so plump and juicy, enfolded in the rest of the Christmas cake mixture and now baking for 4 hours in a low oven. Still using my late Mam’s recipe... #stirupsunday #christmascake #homebaking

Wet Sunday afternoon in Sheffield city centre after working the university open day. About 70 people came to hear about @shufineart - a nice buzz despite the murky weather. I bought mince pies to celebrate - first of the season. 🥧🎄🥧

I weeded at the allotment in the morning (left the sprawling borage for the bees as it’s still flowering).

Then I wrestled with the bindweed throttling shrubs in the guerrilla garden behind the house (been so busy this year it got away from me a bit) and weeded there too.

Now very tired with an aching back, mucky nails and scratched to pieces by brambles, but I have pink cheeks and that sense of happiness that only comes after a day working outside.

“‘the space in which to place me’ transforms the U.S. Pavilion into an embodiment of Gibson’s radically inclusive vision for the future: a space in which Indigenous art and a broad spectrum of cultural expressions and identities are central to the American experience.”
