Where's here drt 08???

I reckon doing woodchip would be such a shock to your body it may cause lasting damage :w00t:

I don't think I have the patience for doing marbling. The wife would make a killing out of it I'm sure, she is really arty and patient.
Would like her to do some mural work, but bringing her to work with me :scared: :scared:

Hello Dave
Have you thought anymore about doing courses?

You'd make a killing going by what you achieve on you webernet page.
That my friend is the poodles undercarriage :001_tt1:

I just wish I'd been on a firm in my first years who took an interest in that kind of work.
I tip my hat to you, Sir!

Dave....is that Dave Caldwell.....I might have got that a bit wrong, dredging the memory of the name from my brain. Worked in the past with Mr Wakefield? I do hear of your prolific decorative painting contracts..
