Hi Chris ... ! Both look really great, and I especially like the first one.. the colouring is a really nice effect ! Brilliant !

Thats the beastie I've got .... Dont have too much to say in complaint about the banjo .... but oh yes, the noise ! Sounds like a washing machine full of bricks when its running. Other than that.. for the money, its everything i expected and more. 8)

Thats brilliant. Great job :lol: 8) :D

Nice one Loz, duly bookmarked ! 8) 8) 8)

They certainly 'should' do . But money's ruined it. You would have thought 'representing your country' would be the pinnacle, wouldn't you ? You saw it in that N.Korean guy, to whom it was 'everything'. I agree completely, Mike. :D

I know its an obvious point, but consider Rooney for example... He's on what, £150,000 a week at Old Trafford on first-team wages ... or on 'National Pride' in S.Africa. Would he 'give his all' and risk a long term injury for National Pride ? Possibly not. Same is true for all players, not...

Lovely shape to the form, Lee ... Thats a little cracker. I'm guessing from your measurements and the pics, - he's a relatively deep wee fella, and the deeper. the trickier in general ! ... And the colouring is always a nice thing to try - I've not done a huge amount of it, but its fun and...

Dont get too carried away with that german performance.... The Aussies were dire. -- fair point , the sending off was a bit on the harsh side, but comeon.. Craig Moore ? .. he was a dumplin' when he played for Rangers up here 10 years ago. The german defence (Lahm aside ) is nothing special...

Take your point Olly, sometimes the opposition he's scored against are a bit on the 'insignificant' side.. but then again , the fella can only score against the opposition thats in front of him... and he has done that, at least on the international stage. I'd heard on the Tranny earlier ( and...

... And I guess it may be obvious to most .. but as with all manual threading .... not to go at it like a bull at a gate. Cut a little, back the tool off, forward again and cut a little more, back off again and so on... Not that I've cut any threads on wood, but done more on carbon and...

Probably one of the most 'open' world cups in many many years... and difficult therefore to predict the winners ... but if push came to shove, Brazil / Spain in the final, - with Brazil lifting the trophy. The dutch, portugal, argentina, possibly the germans, all have sides good enough to...

Cracking piece of work Ad... clearly a lot of time and effort gone into that, and its paid off.. he's a beaut ! 8) :lol:

Phillip, thats truly astounding. Immense visual impact. I thought the almost same thing as Bodders... ash cloud on the horizon ? :lol: its fabulous. :D 8) :D
