    What a great question, it's so interesting to hear about people's
    choices! I always had an interest in jewelry, when I was younger, I
    used to do alot of bead jewelry, and always wanted to do more in
    metal, but never really found the outlet. I even originally wanted
    to be a jeweler, but didn't think I'd get anywhere with it, and,
    well, I guess I'm too practical sometimes. Anyway, time passes, and I
    move to another country, and my friend wants to take a pottery
    course, which I thought I'd take with her. I look around, and find a
    silver jewelry course at a local artists studio with a fantastic fine
    jeweler instead. That was a year ago, and I'm wondering why I didn't
    do it 20 years ago! I am obsessed and spend practically every spare
    minute I can (there aren't that many) working on something. That, and
    pouring over catalogues to decide what bit of kit I'll get next!!! 

Robin.
