    Good to see you back nz looking forward to see more of your WIP, it's blowing a gale here down South, good night to be inside...I'll be thinking of you carving away during the night.

    Looks like a good bit of carving wood, did you finish the Mad Hatter?

    Excellent.

    Not on the lack of sleep, on the work in progress.

    Dave hope the meds ae doing the job and all settles down otherwise neighbours are going to be phissed off with a bunch of Woodies have an all night turnfest on your driveway.

    If it becomes a hassle mate don't hesitate to withdraw the offer we will understand

    Dolphin looks great The sound of chisels on wood no problem sounds of hammers or mallets hitting chisels at 3am might be a bit much tap tap tap or are you using the dremel

    Some of my best work is done while I'm actually asleep......

    Trouble is, when I wake up its all gone

    Its amazing how you can have a dream that involves building/making something, then wake up in the morning feeling like you've actually done the physical work, and there's nothing to show for it.

    Only last week I spent a night building a stone wall in the garden - woke up with a sore back and aching shoulders, and no wall to be seen. Bugger.....
