My sympathies Eamonn, the War Office has had two operations on her lower back and has been on Morphine patches for the last 2 years just to survive .. :down:

Jim my sympathies extend to your wife with her back probs and medication wish her the best from me Wilma who saw me through countless years of extreme pain and sometimes beyond control back probs joins with me as well in sympathy.

Kind regards Peter.:thumbs:

Whoopy :up::up::up: managed to get started on some turning after not feeling too well, car MOT and making Christmas presents. Even though I enjoy all forms of woodworking I really enjoy my turning time better. I am turning a box in the shape of an apple at the moment I will post it after the 26th.:mooney2:

Been busy this weekend. Had a craft fair yesterday, not so good. But today, made a hollowing toolgetting on for 24" from Sapele, and used 1/4" tool steel for the tip, cut some pieces for a table I'm making for my mate, and finished a big picture frame for the wife. Knackered? Yes! :funny:
