    Default We Will Remember

    It's been a while. These pens are made from the remaining timber from the ANZAC Memorial Pool in Bundaberg. It was to be heritage listed but the former mayor and CEO and all but 3 councilors voted for the desecration only weeks away from it being heritage listed and 1 year short of its centenary instead of restoration. We now have a new mayor and the CEO has resigned.

    The fountain pen and rollerball is for the mayor, who also served and the Anvil is for the officer accepting the salute for this year's ANZAC Day.Photoroom-20240412_164824.jpgPhotoroom-20240412_165136.jpgPhotoroom-20240412_164954.jpgPhotoroom-20240412_195948.jpg

    Fantastic work as ever Darren

    I wasn't aware that our new mayor was an ex-digger so thanks for that bit of info!

    Yeah, she was in the Army I was told. I'm happy with the pens. The fountain pen and rollerbal I measured the components and turned to size using TBC method.
