Good point. In my defence, I had been to a party last night and was well fresh.

I've just checked the link and it's Dazza's old gallery site, deconstructed some time ago, so you ought to Badger the Dark one.

 

There are one or two of my whittlings at manthorp.co.uk and I attach a piccie of the Original Cracked Ball for you to wince at, plus a *bonus* picture of a snow leopard carved in holly with inlaid amber and jet eyes on a Tagua Nut snowdrift.

sKuse my ignorance - but did you just appear recently, or are you a longtime poster with a previous sig and if so what was it?

According to my profile, no I did not just appear recently, I registered in June 2007. But I haven't visited much since then. 29(ish) posts hardly makes me a longtime poster.

 

I liked the look of your seven fish pie, BTW. I like fish more than anything else edible (i.e. not more than sex), and it looked scrummy, and most professional.

Excellent.

I do worry that, at my advanced, almost Manthorpian age, I miss things such as changes of name. 

Thank you for your kind words. It tasted very good - that fish pie. It also looked better than the photo suggested, even if I say so myself. The problem was that everybody was invited for 2:00 but arrived at 11:00 and seemed intent on staging a grand reunion in the kitchen, with the result that I rushed the egg wash.

Pah! Just excuses really.

Blimey, weren't the old style Cylons in Razor a blast? "By your command"

But purrlease let the crackedness of my ball be a unique event... Two would be difficult.

Ahh, now, changes of name ... that's another matter.

You mean to say you were unaware up to this point that sex is edible?

Indeed it is, but not in an inviting-the-parents-around-for-dinner way.

Aye, more of a romantic meal for two.
