Art Tournament! (by sarah)
Tomorrow sees me running around the City of Gloucester like a blue bottomed one!
First off we are going to St Johns Hall on Northgate street for the prize giving and auction of the pictures on a post card organised by Sabre Arts. Me and the girls popped in for a look yesterday and the entries are FANTASTIC!
That starts at 11 and by hook or by crook there will be cake!
Then I have to be at the Cathedral for 2 pm to take part in the SOLD OUT event of the Poet Laureate finals! I'm not nervous honest (opps there goes another nail!). This is a free event but as numbers were limited there was a ticket allocation and all tickets were gone over a week before the event!
Me and the other finalist will be judged by a panel of poetry experts, the public and the local council. If I was to get it I would write a poem about Gloucestershire everyday for the year. Not all of those would be usable but it would be enough for me to give the community a book at the end of it.
After that I am whizzing off to Greyfryers and Black Fryers - not quiet sure which one I'm doing face painting at and which I'm doing a poetry set at but I'm sure it all work itself out!
There is also a classic car show at the Cathedral which I am really looking forward to - I love my cars I do!

It's funny how some days are like that. I hope you were pleased with your day. What did you think of the art tournament exhibition?
