I have about 40 ladles in my possession. anyone want some soup? I cleared both Tesco and Pearce's Hardware out. I'm speeding up the drying process today (hopefully) by letting the glue dry in the afternoon sun. The microwave drying failed - too bubbly and toxic. I'm off on holiday soon and have to set up a lot of ladles ready to meld together upon my arrival, before the 'Surface/Space/Time' exhibition at the Crypt in St Pancras. Come on glue!
