This commission is definitely the most challenging I have ever done and Martin Cheek's words keep coming back to me: "Don't touch it!" and after bitterly complaining to him in an e-mail: "I told you so." Well, what can I say - I have grouted the one corner emblem today - a major accomplishment!
The Cape Town station public are such nice people - they stop, stare at us, some ask questions for example "What are you ladies doing?" and others talk amongst themselves about what they think we are doing and what we should be doing! Most of them are locals from Cape Town but there are also lots of foreigners - mostly from Africa. Hundreds of people pass us by where we are sitting in a fenced off area - we call it "the zoo cage". During the past 2 weeks we have seen people ranging from conservatively dressed office people to scantily clad ladies of the night. Yes, this is Cape Town station - a fascinating place but also a VERY noisy construction site.
