I was in Marijana Dworski's shop today when a Polish couple came in to enquire about the name.
Dworski is a Polish name, but Marijana was born and brought up locally. Her father was the potter in Clyro - the little stone hut he used as his pottery was recently knocked down and a new house is now onthe site. Mr Dworski came to this country at the end of the Second World War, but most of his family were in Croatia, and Marijana still has relatives there. His parents wanted him to be a lawyer; he wanted to be a potter - so he stayed here, and flourished.
Meanwhile, there seems to be a fault with the computer at the Children's Bookshop - Judith is having trouble getting her emails through. Normal service will be resumed as soon as possible.
