Great pity that particular tale ended long before the second chapter.
Saga continues though——- Simon Cheeseman is the grandson working closely with Craig Wilson at
WILSON CUSTOM COMPOSITES.
He’s a whizz geek with “Cads” on a computer——- rest is classified so i’d Better zip up before I get myself in a heap of trouble!
Had a nice lunch at He Avisford Hilton with Jillys daughter Catherine and little Lizzie , food was excellent——- lots of “ Mother’s” dining out. Staff were cheerful and obliging, down side was when the dill came with about ten quids worth of extra drinks that were clearly not ours and should not have been on the ticket. No excuses for that which was made quite clear——— never did like being overcharged for anything, always pisses me off some what.
Should have an uninterrupted day in the shop, which these days means 5/6 hours all being well. Present project is a forty foot cat ( ALEX AND ANI) , liked the shape, and when Craig told me he was pulling a new one out of the mould this week for a customer, decided to do one of my (Concepts) for his desktop. This one is 50mm (20”) in length, so a bit longer than normal———— will post you a few pictures from the log to the finish———— decided on natural English Oak finish——— Craig can paint it any way he wants. I don’t do paint any more.
Soldiered on like a good ‘un this morning———- everything went according to plan——- no cock-ups or crap moments, don’t get that happening many times a month I can tell you.
Forgot to download the early pics I took of the project so it’ll be late afternoon before I get to posting some “Interesting” stuff————- not to worry——— I’ll get there in the end!
