Hello Folks!
My name is Terry Cotter. I’m a Potter.
I have been potterising for nearly two decades now. I stock a wide range of ceramic goods in my shop down here in Lower Swell.
Gingerfightback was pottering around my pottery the other day and offered me the chance to pen a regular arts column as long as I didn’t press charges and let him put the teapot and banister rails back where he found them.
So, without further ado, here are some reviews of some of my favourite bits from the world they call “Art”.
1. Painting
The Mona Lisa – A very good painting. It’s got colours and everything.
He Painted It – But Without A Yorkshire Pudding On His Head
2. Movies
The Exorcist – scared the bejesus out of me. He’s a lad is Satan!
3. Classical Music
Beethoven’s 7th – has some good bits in it. Deaf as a post Beethoven.
4. Rock Music
The Clash – The Clash – has some good songs. Goodness they WERE angry.
5. Ballet
Swan Lake – has some good dancing in it. Goes on a bit though.
These are purely my views. Do you have any views on my views? If so send me your views on my views for others to view!
PS What is a Potter’s favourite rock band?
Kiln Joke!
(If you know any pottery gags please send them through – a hand thrown cup and saucer is on offer each month for the best rib tickler! By hand thrown I mean hand made and not chucked at a passer by due to one of my inexplicable rages. Don’t worry though, they are short lived. Usually).
Until next time……keep those wheels a spinning!

Does Mr Cotter have a Demi Moore-type pottering pal to splatter with?
I’m on a Community Pay Back scheme there at the weekend – I will ask him. Not likely to be Swayze though unless by the fates he’s a ghost!
Maybe there’s a clay-mation answer to that predicament – he could mould his own? Or is that going a bit Frankenstein?
Good idea – thunderbirds meets morph! WOW!
I look forward to Mr Cotter’s next “creation”…
I think smoke alarms may feature!
I can hear the Potter’s dialect. Hilarious!
Thanks Susie. Terry’s shop in Lower Swell was a real find.
Hilarious.
Thanks Andra.
You are a serious nut case. This was bleeping hilarious.
Terry will be please to hear that.
Oh, did I miss something?
No no.
Oh, right, the title, I am such a moron.
You should let Terry post more often, have you a link to his blog i would love to read it 🙂
To cassy the pottery analogy a bit further Harry, these wheels turn a little slowly!
At last, a true artist who delivers the plainspoken truths on other arts.
Looking forward to hearing more fromthis singular voice!
Thanks Guap – he really does have a different viewpoint. Deranged but different.
I have made you a special Nutty Award blog award please come and collect it

Hope you like it 🙂
Most kind of you. First time I’ve been awarded anything – off to buy a frock and work on the acceptance speech.
Love it as usual Ginger, what a great insight into an artist, well a potter anyway. I’m an artist too, but mostly in BS however…

Cheers – we should form our own BS society!
Terry’s right about Swan Lake…..it goes on waaay too much…..too many swans and too much lake. It would have been better as Duck Pond.
Well said that man!
Was Karl Pilkington a ghost writer on this post?
No! no! this is thw world I inhabit!
