Name Bethsy Gray

Profession Jewellery designer Based I11 my workshop and shop inside Starry Starry Night.

How long I've worked here for 20 years.

Background l'm Danish and I trained 111 Denmark in the 508 and 603 but have lived here ever since.

Best thing about the job That I make things that people like and that I can make a liVing from what I do I only work in silver and semi-precious stones.

Worst moment We had a flood two and a half years ago. There was a big mains pipe that burst in the Botanics. We were under several feet of water.

Most interesting commission I made all the Jewellery for a wedding. There were 30 pieces cufflinks for the men and necklaces and earrings for the women. all with amethysts. Favourite thing about Glasgow The people the very friendly people.

What would you do on a day off? (30 about town and catch up on all the things that I need to do. Open I work every day: 10am—6/7pm and l work when I get home.

The only way is up this winter, as those in the know look skywards for a glimpse of inter-planetary goings on. But if you don't know your Orion from your elbow. there are lots of workshops and star gazing evenings to get you up to light speed for the Leonid meteor shower and the lunar eclipse. Inter-stellar!
