Having a blow

First puff in the hotshop yesterday after a 6-week gap. I thought it would be like playing the violin - all out of practice, but I got onto a good roll from the beginning and was boxing cups and stems without a hitch until the last two fell on the floor. Quite heartening, though, as I still have another year to practice in and I should be able to achieve a matching set of 18 goblets in that time.
