    I'm giving up

    Yes, I am definitely giving up as I have now had too much. I have come to the conclusion that gardening is overrated. I spent half of today planting seeds in pots to a total of 84 individual pots. I could have spent that time in the shed. I did, however, persuade the wife to mow the back...

    Party time

    A man left for work one Friday afternoon. But it was payday, so instead of going home, he stayed out the entire weekend partying with the boys and spending his entire pay check. When he finally appeared at home on Sunday night, he was confronted by his angry wife and was barraged for nearly two...

    Money for nothing

    My wife enjoys this program and quite often I hear those words you can do better than that and you would make more from those pieces, quite often I miss seeing what she is talking about as I am doing something on this here computer. Any way I did manage to see a little tonight while doing some...

    Tempest in Lavander Pearl

    A Tempest dressed in Lavender pearl. I make a lot of these for many of my wife's friends. Purple is the associated color of the dementia groups of which my wife is an ambassador for. This particular blank is the best yet for color variation.

    Do you ever-

Funnily the wife loves it will have to take the white stick off of her and beat her around the head:funny: Silly comments...

    No Waste Pen

    After making a few Acrylic pens and having lots of little bits left over from trimming the ends, I decided to sand them down and glue them all together... The end result: After showing the wife of my little creation, (she is Quality Control) she had a good look, said thank you and walked off...

    Jewelry

    It was my wife's birthday a couple of days ago and she doesn't trust my present buying skills since I told her that I once bought my ex wife a tartan shopping bag for her birthday. So my new wife just orders stuff off amazon and I pay for it. However, I like to give her a surprise now and again...

    A little pot

    Coloured box

    Not done much in the way of turning lately. This is a piece that I started at the beginning of the week but went wrong a couple of times and had to repaint it. The main pod is Ash and the ring stand is cherry. The wife thought I was making a lemon well with all the problems I felt like one.

    Which one first
