Had to get more tablets from the doctors regarding this allergy rash. Haven't got a good night's sleep as I ran out. Up three times putting cream on and drifting off and on. Done two fairs recently only sold about 5 pens. So have one on Saturday at a church with a large congregation so might do a bit better.
Regarding the allergy I have decided to cut back on turning for a while till it clears as I don't want to be distracted and possibly not pay attention and have any sort of accident as I am attached to keep my fingers.
So this fair will be my last and will take a break from turning for a while and will keep an eye on the forum.
So I will take this opportunity to wish you all
A Very Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄 and a Very Happy New Year for 2025 and happy turning and will look forward to seeing all those nice new pens 🖊 that you all will be making.

Maybe I will finish my European pen kits that I still don't like because of that tenon. And maybe even venture into making my first Fountain pen.

Once again have a great holiday with your love ones as you all deserve a good rest...

All the best for now and hope to be back turning again soon.....

Thanks Colin hopefully will be back at it soon,
Wife says have to sell off a lot more pens.
At a fair on Saturday and the lady beside me bought 4 streamline pens before it was officially opened. Another young boy bought the red 🌹 roses pen that you made for me for his grandmother as a Christmas gift...
