It was great to meet you, and Giles knows he got the best deal - he's made up with lovely pieces of wood and metal and has already started scheming on how they will be used.  Beware…..  we'll be back!

Oh, and he's been wearing the badge with pride

I've never been teachers pet before, but if I had known how to do it, 50 years ago, I would have pimped my mother to get one of these…...

G. OMFG!!!! A Blue Peter badge. I would have pimped myself in the 1970's to get one of those. I also sent in numerous pics to Vision On in the hope that I would see it in The Gallery……alas in never happened.

Music to my ears…...I have got a brilliant plan for the oak.  I'm going build an Oak framed lean-to thingy for the garden of the office.  I will name it the Boule pavilion.

Along the lines of this....

First though, I'll build a smaller version at home for a log store (talking of logs )
