Comments for Curly shavings..... http://www.wonderfulwood.co.uk:/blog The ramblings of a Naturalist & Woodturner Wed, 07 May 2014 01:52:49 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.5.1 Comment on About me by Jeanne http://www.wonderfulwood.co.uk:/blog/?page_id=4&cpage=1#comment-2909 Jeanne Wed, 07 May 2014 01:52:49 +0000 http://www.wonderfulwood.co.uk:/blog/?page_id=4#comment-2909 Hi Tony,
Greetings from the USA. I have only know you from email, and from a site called Pogo I believe. It’s a site where you can play games. I hope your well and have to say, I’m very disappointed to see that you have not written any more in your blog.
Do you still miss Wales? I am sure you do but, I’m also sure you are happier where you are. All the best. Jeanne

I am hoping you are well and enjoying retirement.

A great man whom I met in Bangor and had the pleasure of working with him for numerous years. He was not only my manager, but a mentor and a true friend. .I am glad I stumbled across this blog (never knew Tony to be such an expert blogger) and having seen your picture Tony, I can only – you have not changed a bit.
Votre amis du passé

Many thanks for your very kind remarks – and my apologies also for being in the throes of a house move when you called. As you will see here now – the dust is beginning to settle and maybe soon we can all get on with our lives again – with the smell of the sea back in my nostrils once more :-)

Thank you for your direct, informed, professional and kindly imparted critique of the work I showed you. The more impressive as I cold called off the street as it were. I find it somewhat embarrassing to to do this, it is really like showing off your children!. But then I am only a very part-time fire wood modifier and do not have to do more than please myself. That said there is a personal drive to at least do it as well as possible. Second best is a cop out at the best of times really, whatever you do.

I had no idea, why should I ?, that you were a radio ham. Had I known I would have mentioned the 3rd Empire French Oromulu clock that was given to me many years ago, and more intersetingly once belonged to Marconi; I gather he was in the radio game too!!

Good luck with your move and I hope that it goes well and that you all soon happily settle into the local community . I can’t imagine that you won’t; but it is always a rite of passage.

I shall keep an eye on your site and look for further news of your migrationa and resettlement.

I wish you and your family every success in your move.

With kind regards, and thanks,

Stephen ( Burman )
Apprentice wood turner!

I am looking for something for a filler for a small box (3″ x 3″) of some crafts that I am working on. I would really like to see these shavings to see if they would work. Can I buy them from you? You never mentioned selling them or a price. I’ll be looking forward to hearing from you.

Thank you!
Ann Strarup

I would have blushed if I had been younger! Thank you for your kind words – they were much appreciated. I hope you will call back again before too long and read some more (I’m part way through my latest little submission as I type this).
