They're lovely and it's a shame about the ones you couldn't bring to the show, but that's the risk with the kind of wood you started off with:thumbs::thumbs::thumbs:

They're really nice woody , I love the spalted effect! I'm looking at my 30+ year old holly tree with different eyes..... of course I can find something else to decorate the Christmas pudding !
