Well half good and half bad day.

Thought I would turn two bowls today all started great remounted the first and returned the foot and outside stopped for a cuppa sat at the computer and it crashed big time.

Spent the day re-booting to factory setting so this took the whole day so while waiting for it to take it sweet own time I carried on with the bowls.

So now at the stage that the bowls are turned but I am behind on the finishes.

The good news is that the computer is now all up and running and doing it twice as fast as it cleared all of the rubbish off. Also last week I finished backing up all my files like photo's, PDF's and documents to a external hard drive, phew thank goodness for that not lost them.

I should have had the bowls finished or at least to the stage of them requiring a good buff up

Looking forward to see the finished results,sounded like persistence pays with the computer and the bowls. Half and half reminded me of a Quilt Wilma made forever ago called Half Bread Horses, pic with a little detail of a small part of the quilt.

Kind regards Peter.
