    A gift from a friend and neighbour

    About 18 months ago a good friend and neighbour asked if I would be interested in a Mulberry branch that he'd acquired. Yes of course I would be interested. He explained that he'd leave it in amongst the weeds etc for a year or so and then we would retrieve and cut it into useful pieces. Well...

    Angel Pen

    A few weeks ago someone posted a pen with an angel clip. The missus would dearly love me to make this pen as a gift to her best mate who will be 70 this year. Can anyone give me a pointer as to where the kit can be purchased.

    A belated Happy New Year to one and all.

    Happy New Year everyone. I hope Santa was kind to one and all and that the new year brings all that each of us hopes for.

    Back from Surgery yesterday.

    They called a risky one, suffered an event under anasthesia so they kept me for several hours more doing checks and balances. Some internal 3 D pics showed severe burning from my 39 visits for Radiation to kill cancer a couple of years ago. No such thing as a free lunch. Not supposed to drive...

    The year starts here

    Well for me the year starts today as I have just completed all the jobs from last year. Been out in the wood store and pulled out some bits and pieces and brought them into the house to do some final drying as they are things like boxes. I also picked out a couple of blanks for some pens. Just...

    The end of an era and the start of a new one

    I want to say a very big public thank you to Buckeye and Vic Perrin for their help in recent months. When Jim passed the reigns of the Forum to me last year, both Peter and Vic very kindly agreed to continue in his roles as moderators. In Peter's case, despite health issues, he agreed to stay...
