  3. Thanks so much for sharing your enthusiasm Cat and Kerrdelune...

    ...I actually offer an 'adult version' of Saturday in the Studio...it's called 'Media Blend' and meets for 7 Wednesday evenings...this evening is the final MB studio and I am all a flutter to see what exceptional meaning the artists have made in delving in and listening to their own voice in a new way.
