Very enjoyable 2 hours. Chris, the teacher, was brilliant and really helpful. I made 4 pots. They were a bit wonky, but I like them. It was a really enjoyable session which I would thoroughly recommend.

Although we had a last minute change of time l, this was well communicated and we're able to have the class on the day we wanted. Our teacher was patient and helped us along the way. The class was fun and I look forward to getting my finished piece in a few weeks.
