came up trumps with a copy of Hilda Nelson's "Francois Baucher, the Man and his Method"
cost me £5 as they'd got it in from the British Library, but still...
part read it at Trudi's but didn't finish it, so looking forward to doing so....given that I've read the Racinet, it seems to me I ought to read this as well....
i also asked them for the Charles Harris Notebooks, but don't hold out much hope of those at all....
anyway, it's blowing a gale (good drying weather if nothing else) and when i've finished my cup of tea I shall go down, see molly, and make a start on attaching things to the stable wall (the hay bar, for starters, LOL)

What do you think of the book Claire? How does it differ from the Racinet books?
as i say, i only got half way through it at Trudi's, academic of course, the first half goes into the history of how he started and the disputes between him and others as to what to do etc ..the second half, i think, is a translation of baucher himself (might be wrong.) I'm sure Trudi would let you borrow it...
i'll take my time re-reading what i've already read, then get onto what i didn't read, and will have to renew the loan a couple of times no doubt!
