Earthquakes and glass

Well, doing this blog for the first time was a bit of a stress for The Antique Mouse, but we got there. He is still finding his feet with this blogging business. In fact he did enjoy being photographed, although he now thinks he should go on a diet and he is not sure whether this was his best side.
One of the Antique Mouse's favourite things is glass, (well obviously when you take a look at him), and he was most perturbed when he felt the earthquake last night. He has a glass collection and has spent most of the day checking it over. At least it all got a good dusting. His favourite piece at the moment is a piece by Stuart glass. It is a relatively modern piece by Iestyn Davies.
When the earthquake came the place rattled and the glass tinkled. All the shelves stayed in place - thankfully. Generally earthquakes and glass don't mix! The Mouse hasn't broken anything since a rather unfortunate accident in 2002, but we won't talk about that! Maybe later.....
