Prehistoric Pen

[Penpal]

Show and tell at my new for me Lapidary Club last night a big first for them. So many oohs and ahs. Going off to visit a guy today whose father bequeathed him his turning gear including his Cand C. I hope to blow the socks off the woodburners with a dangerous but exquisite new presentation untouched by me completely random with infinite detail I may be able to show soon. The guy is a genius,bit like a young into the future type. He makes his living flying his own Drones. Another new perspective and experience for me.
Neat after being referred yesterday to yet another specialist following serious diagnosis plural yesterday. More deep injections possible major surgery with the lights on local anaesthetics and decisions. Oh well goes with the age territory. Our big time Canberra show end of the month because I will be manning the stall so to speak another first free tickets on paper in the form of a bar code. I will cruise around in my four wheeled scooter, used it twice yesterday first at the major hospital ,then three hrs shopping. At the Mall it takes up a small footprint at the food court enabling us to share Chinese food in amongst the madding throng.Not supposed to lift anything but Wilma and I manage the Disability Scooter in and out of the car boot.

Peter.

I hope you get your health sorted without too much trouble. I'm new to the forum, but have read through a vast amount of your posts and appreciate lots of your replies to other members posts. I have learnt a great deal by reading what you have written on this forum.

Kind regards

Craig

First...always go for the pizza at the Food Court. (On this side, the pizza at food courts are all NY-style thin and delightful.) If you have to settle for Chinese, make sure you buy your special girl an egg roll. It's a sign of luck, peace and love.

I told my girl about you and your girl. We'll be there soon enough. She said, "Papa - it sounds like he needs our prayers." I suspect that Wilma and Carlene are similar girls.

Never mind all of this food and health and girl stuff. Lapidary arts? I need someone to help me find a supplier for cabochons for Iona Marble (Isle of Iona, Scotland) who doesn't charge an arm and a leg. I only have two of each (arms and legs) and I want to use the arms for pens. Help?

(BTW, old man Peter - you made the short list. I never asked a blessing on anyone in Australia before. I suppose God knows that place too, so I suspect He was listening. It will work out the way it is supposed to work out for you. Keep the faith, Peter. Your words have brought me a lot joy over the last few months.)

Want to cut a stone for me? :wink:
