    Default Service at Carroll's Woodcraft Supplies

    Drove all the way down to Drysdale today to "have a peek" at Jim and Irene's store.

    Very nice store, lots of goodies, full of woodies drinking tea (at least I think it was tea).

    Glad I filled up with fuel before leaving, otherwise I may not have had enough money to get back home. Might be a while before I get down there again Jim, the missus has blacklisted you.

    Thanks for all the help and advice

    Greg just remind her that we were gentle on you.

    We could have melted the plastic a lot more

    Remind her that when the other lathe is sold that will help offset some of the expenses.

    But dont tell her you have it earmarked for other toys.

    Greg had the same experience myself when i went down there. Must do it again soon to "top up" supplies.

    Great people to deal with.

    I was thinking that next time I might take the van and see if any other woodies in the area want to make a morning trip out of it.

    Is this the start of the next "turnfest" being organised Greg.

    Not sure i like that idea it could be a more costly day than Ern's $6 meal coverage.

    Don't know about about 'personal' shopping but the
    mail order section of the business is alive and well!
