Excuse me - I'd like to point out that I was in fact the first person to recognise that this is "the thread that wouldn't die".
Whilst I never doubted your carving skillz, it's only when you highlight the scale of your work that the talent is underlined. For a while I thought the balls were - erm... ball-sized and thus, while not doubting the artistic merit, I thought the detail was lacking. Seeing the scale now - they are quite skillfully detailed.
Damned internet.
Right, so. Could anyone please explain to me about how big a 50p piece is? Are we talking a dime? A nickel? Perhaps even a quarter? American money here people, if you please.
An inch across, give or take a fraction.
Slightly bigger than a quarter. And with slightly more sides, obviously.
Well whittled work. Is there any of your work on display around the airevalley area?
Thankee kindly, Chris and Patch. You're much more helpful than the people I talked to about it originally, who thought for some ungodly reason that I was referring to an American 50 cent piece. (I clearly, *clearly* said 50 pence.)
So, yeah. Balls. The Eagles. Normal service being resumed and all that.
yay, you can't get rid of this thread so easy as that ...
causing a foum melt-down just to finish it off huh ?
hehehe, its ALIVE !!!

(I'll delete that after you've seen it)
(if you knew this then sorry, just letting you know cos it's different to before)
I noticed that a few minutes ago. Haven't a clue why it is doing it mind :\
What do I have to do? MURDER EVERYBODY AT TEH NORTHERN MEAT?!
If it comes to that, could you make a backup copy of Simon, please? Just he's promised to send me Harry Potter, and I'll cry and cry if he's been brutally murdered and I can't have it.
(yes, John)
Well, I suppose /you/ could send me Harry Potter, but I can't help but think it wouldn't mean as much coming from a dirty irish...

No, let it reach 399, then kill it within a sniff of its 400th birthday. It's crueller that way.

Tomorrow, you will pay dearly for your callousness.
