Striking grain and use of a natural inclusion/ exclusion Neil among the most beautiful of Olive Wood you have ever shown.

Beautiful looking bowl Neil. I'm assuming the wood is from your own stock of olivewood. They are lucky people the folks who buy it from you. Do you have much left?

Red or Green day, I have no idea what that means Eamonn, thought Green day were a crap American band.

I knew I would end up with the hole, Olive is fickle like that. I have a few customers who say I keep the best bits for myself, when in reality they would complain if their finished article ended up with a hole in it, even though that's the reason for the good looking grain!

3 or 4 tons Phil:goesred:
There is still one full trunk on the drive, some in the garden some temporarily in the burning shed, and 6 1M x 610mm shelves full of it in the drying shed, and some on the floor:goesred:

Yes lovely bowl Neil, just the thing to use up some of the two pressure cookers full of chicken broth I have just made, oh wait there is the freezer of course. I did like Tom's Cock a leeky suggestion. :thumbs:
