Yeh, things could get interesting when Graham stops still long enough to communicate, I am lead to believe he is currently on a Gaelic Course in Sky.
Knowing his penchant for the golden nectar late night conversation could get interesting.

Hope the web translator can keep up.

even somewhat later this far south east, and after a day restacking timber and sorting a disheveled workshop out in 38C temp, I'm afraid way past my bedtime.
Glad you are getting in a bit of relax time.
 
Well I'll be a monkey's Uncle ! ... he's only just phoned !!
Currently he's at Grantown-on Spey, and is on his way here !

Excellent... looking forward to meeting Graham in the 'flesh' so to speak, ... I've even sent the wife to the shop ( and we have only the one in the village... shops that is, not wives ... ) for Sausages :lol: :lol: :lol:

Great, ! He'll be here about half two 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) :D
 
All 'Hello's' passed on Chaps,.....

Managed to pin him down to a very, very valuable few lessons while he was here... and I must say, what a fantastic way to spend a saturday in the company of a truly lovely man.
What an absolute gentleman Graham is.

... if ever anyone wondered 'what is the point of an internet forum' ? .. then this afternoon would completely illustrate the point beyond any question - without it.. that wouldn't have happened today, and I'd not have missed that for the world.

Safe Journey home Graham... and you know where we are now. :D :D :D

Pity I didn't have a number for DickM too cause we could have phoned Dick to nip over too. .... next time, for sure !

Obviously not hit golden nectar saturation point yet then.
 
He has been in contact,expecting 7mt. camper sometime anytime.I dont need warnings always a welcome here. REgards Boysie
 
Well, he managed to find my phone number, and we had a good long chat on Sunday. Even managed to get his monster van in and out of the drive without incident - it makes daughters VW camper-in-the making look like a mini.
Thanks, Graham, for the tips on parting off. I'm gonna keep trying :)

... parting off ...

You've just reminded me of a mod (gleaned from elsewhere, luv to credit them but can't remember the source :roll: )

Tack weld/super glue ( :lol: ) a piece of welding/brazing/brass rod to the base ( in the flute) of that parting tol....the one with which one can do beads too
No more grooves in the toolrest :wink:

Alun ...I can recommend the coffee at Dick's
 
Graham is very busy trying to be busy. He is being being pesered by a pretend woodturner come piper for regular free advice and coffee.
