Just wanted to show you that there’s a reason for having very little to say at the moment – I’ve just been too busy with technique pages for my Portuguese Whitework book. So here’s a page from the book that I did yesterday.

To give you an idea of how slow-going it can be, I did just two pages like this yesterday. At about 10am, I had nearly finished the first page, then about one diagram later, it was nearly 11:30am. Still, I remember when I was working on the Ukrainian book, one particular diagram took me about 6 hours. (Yep, just ONE!)
The page hasn’t been edited, checked or anything like that, so it could completely change before you ever see it in real life. Probably I’d like to fit a photo in there somewhere too…
