Years ago three guys named Peter ventured to Tasmania one of the three of us was born and had family still in Hobart and as a Teacher taught this great man in the attachment. George is also an activist and leader in the use of and harvesting Tasmanias wealth of incredible timber.He is beyond an artist in wood and every day commutes to his workshop an enormous shed he relocated from far away. Whilst visiting him at his shed the three Peters prepared to demonstrate at a big show in the north of the state. I demod Pen Turning another offset Turning the other carving. George allowed scrap? timber selection and preparation. A lot of the guys in the Tasmanian Woodcraft Guild are like George past and present World Class Wood craftsman. We travelled 5000 km in a 4 wheel drive covering the state viewing meeting etc with woodies a memorable trip for that full month. At the big timber mill on the West Coast I bough two ton of Huon Pine (plain) offcuts on two pallets had them shipped home to Canberra.

Last night on a whim I rang George to say hello etc just checking in he sent me this video I now share.

All those years ago while demonstrating at the three yearly Wood Show another Tasmanian and I were singled out and Photographed by a lovely young lady photographer and found in a feature in the newspaper next day, we hit it off that young lady and me cause we shared this disease of photography etc. She confided in me she was going OS to the UK plus a real character she said she would enjoy heaps of free drinks of course I asked how she said do you want to see my pussy was the key. WEll she had a tattood kitten on one ankle that was the pussy she had in mind. Any way I gave her my E Mail addy and asked her to send me a two page letter on the first page inviting me to see a pic of her pussy on the next page a pic of the cat. This she duly did I had Wilma read it fortunately I survived we had a good laugh. Unfortunately our family historian daughter confiscated the newspaper pic years ago.

JUst checked the video dropped out I will try again.

Peter.
