Jo, thanks! Nice job on the covers of the CDs. Music is always so inspirational and it is great to have good songwriters.

I wish I'd been able to see the list the day it was posted but I had no internet most of the day ... I was out for the day in the sun on a lovely little island ... ever since then everytime I go outside the weather's been awful! So I've been finding things about the house to sketch. And I'm away from home at the moment so there isn't much to find!

1) Living thing: my housemate. I've rescued him out of the bath 3 times so far. He turned round and walked off midway through the sketch, which is why his legs look odd.
2) Tastes wonderful: shortbread biscuits
3) Leaf: creeping buttercup leaf
4) Sounds wonderful: memory stick with my holiday music on
All in regular ball-point pen.

Kay, so glad you found some items to sketch for the hunt. Your little friend apparently wasn't too cooperative. Nicely done, especially the bag of biscuits!

Ai, nice ink sketches. I'm so used to seeing color from you. Nice ink lines!

Thanks all.

Joan, The sheds were a great find for boxes, well done. The ice store is another when you catch me being hungry! Clever idea on the door frame. I can only think of paintings and photos.
