How Kind was Santa?

[Bryan Milham]

So, who got what (for the workshop), Sound Off.

I got work braces to hold my trousers up, a new thinsulate hat and a book on the history of wood and it's uses through the ages and by the worlds various cultures.

Also a promise of a Branding Iron when I know what I want it to say (http://www.toolpost.co.uk/images/Branding.pdf).

Got a decorating elf in my stocking which I wasn't expecting, handy little tool that will be really useful for a lot of things. Also a commission for some restoration work in a church came through on Christmas Eve. Nice surprise. Thank you Santa.

I got an "Angry Birds" hat for those cold days in the workshop   





Hopefully the kids have forgotten about it this morning as it can get a trifle warm sitting in the house with it on, just for their amusment 


Hope you all had a great Xmas.


Cheers.

Dont be a spoilsport, wear it for work :-)

[Bryan Milham]

I'm wondering if one will go over my Power Cap respirator, make a change not looking like Darth Vader!

[Doug Barratt]

  I wore it today when I visited an elderly mate, he laughed so hard I was worried he`d have a heart attack 

At least it cheered him up.



Cheers.

Wouldn't mind this trip myself, but it is quite a run from W, Yorks ...

Hi jim,
 yes I suppose it is just for a visit but it would be worth making the trip for the show. There's 2 or 3 campsites very close if you ever wanted to come down.

 Dont the youngsters seem to get such a lot at Christmas.

 I told my young neice that when I was young all I got was an Apple and an Orange

 She replied, " Wow you got a computer and a mobile phone "

 

Happy New Year everyone

Cheers Martin
