Oh please don’t say that Phil, I’m reaching that this year too, I’m looking upon it as ‘the new 50’ which only seems 5 minutes ago.
A friend of mine has not had a birthday for a number of years she has a celebration day, we all know that she reaches her "milestone" this year. I think we shall have to design a special poster that doesn't mention her age.

Happy birthday David remember it's only a number.... enjoy your day.

Middle of Walmart. Now, there's an idea. My one minute of fame, before they drop me off at the looney bin. I'll just tell 'em, Brew told me to do it.
The reply to that will be....mild/bitter or a bottle of Yates White Wine sir.

Silas does not go out if it's raining/snowing/windy or hot he only goes out when HE wants to. Maisie is not fussy as long as the walk is not to long only time she wants to stay out is when there is snow, only thing they have in common is laziness/eating and finding best place to sleep.

11h x 17l x10w cm. Made it from an offcut of MDF. Thank you for your kind words. I can make them smaller .
You said that you could make the stools smaller are these sizes to small ...2.5 h/4.5w and 3cms deep. This is 12th scale that I use in my dolls house if you could make in this size I would be a regular customer, I can see them in a lot of Victorian kitchens. You are a very talented artist a lot of miniaturists would love to have your pictures in their mini houses. Gem

Beekay what size is the smallest stool it's beautiful, the detail in your butterflies makes you think they are made from feathers.

Made me own little wheelbarrow. And it's with my most grateful thanks to Carni and LizzieM. Without whose help I would still be dithering in the quagmire. X
BK if you ever feel like entering the world of dolls house miniature your painted wheelbarrow would be an instant best seller. There are many mini items that would benefit from your talent.

Printing is the easiest part. Firstly you’ve got to capture the information on file using modelling software or a 3D scanner. Sounds fun but can be expensive to get decent kit.
Lost me with modeling software, thanks for your reply.

I'm drooling over a CNC small router..Sorry Ben "Computer Numerical Controlled". I can see it getting lots of usage, but will be later in the year before I get one, then a 3d printer and 3d scanner. I love tools even though they find me more work to carry out.
3d printer ......in simple language for me, can it make anything that will scan am thinking of miniature furniture. I have had a look at the information on line which makes it look easy (ish) but will I need lots of extras to make it work.

I grew my first beard out of frustration when I worked at Boulby Potash mine, It was either five o clock shadow or pure torture at work.
On Friday I was chatting to an American couple in the pub and he said that as a young man he worked at Boulby before emigrating. I mentioned that i knew of someone that had also worked there, he worked there early sixties and was known as big red he stood at over 6ft with a red beard. I never asked how long he worked there but if you had crossed paths I think you would have remembered. He still had his beard but no longer red, when I read your post I though what an odd coincidence.

I would like to add to Nonna's post about unpicking stitches, it's even worse when you frame your work hang it on the wall......then notice a spot where you have missed stitches.

This is worth a read. I make no claim of authorship and not having permission to reprint it I offer only the link. I'm not pointing fingers at anyone in particular, you must judge for your self the relevance of the article.
A very interesting read and even a little bit worrying.

Laughable and sad maybe ?
More sad than anything to see members picking on each other, after all they are only words. Like other members this site helps me keep in touch with the Nottingham of a loved one's youth that we were not part of, if the comments and postings of a certain person upset you DON'T READ THEM......

Why if he wanted to be a girl from the age of eight did he spend all that money trying to look like David Beckham.

" I swear those rotten dogs laughed. "
They do, I know. Mine are the same but only if they are together. They look at each other and their facial expression changes to, what can be only interpreted as, a laugh.
So true i slipped on the grass a few weeks ago all i hurt was my pride. The greyhound was dancing around me the bulldog sat with his head on one side sure he was trying not to laugh.

I no longer have a garden so make do with window boxes and pots. My mum has bought me some gardening gloves with plastic tips so I can dig in the pots without using a trowel. I would so love eBay to go away she buys some rubbish.
