Sorry I haven't been on lately been real busy with pens for heroes and supporting different veterans groups running auctions starting a twitter page sold loads of pens on there.
I have cut back on some of the things I do so I'm not spending as much time on the computer as I'm getting older I seem to get tired out very quickly so some things have had to go it is time to start prioritizing what I do also I have handed some stuff over to other people its good to have good friends that you can call on and are willing to step in.
Also I haven't been able to get on the forum for a while it works out it is my modem I could get on anything else but not on here anyway problem sorted just got to try and catch up now.
My latest news regarding the forum is Phil Dart sent me a package for our veterans fill of all sorts of goodies pen trumpets which I had just run out of some of his new pen kits which I am looking forward to turning and some of his Ebonite and wooden pen blanks thanks Phil.

As a prodigeous volunteer over a long period of time and also slowing down, I understand what it is like Woody. You had a few shifts to enable you to downsize one my worries now. A couple came the other day a picked up 80 kilos od offcuts from the band saw. They make items from reclaimed wood. I have another 80 kilos for them when the are ready.

Av you been away ? I didn't realise ! Mind you that's because I pick you up on all the other sites where you are doing so much for the cause. It's good to see that you have decided to cut back a bit on the things you do. At your age mate you need too:kiss:

Keep up the good work mate but slow it down a bit :thumbs:
