Message: Hi there, I worked with Peter 94 to 97 doing his wonderful Raku pottery workshops at various locations, The Bath Childrens Festivals and the Glastonbury Festivals being the most memorable. He was such a sweet, caring man. Also a true potting professional. My most enduring memory was to hear his haunting penny whistle echoing around the Abbey Square of an evening. Rain or shine he was always there. I will greatly miss him. I hope you are playing Danny Boy to the Angels Peter.
From your dear friend Simon

Message: I knew Pete from Longacre Hall, Snow Hill. A very lovely man with deeply felt convictions and a gentle manner. I didn't know him well, but we always spoke when we met. I bought a lovely large raku bowl from him at Green Park Station one Christmas as a gift for my wife. He refused to take the full price and gave me an extra pot as a bonus! The bowl will be a wonderful reminder of a truly original and talented man.
