    Default Old Croc hits the the west coast

    Croccy and his lovely wife stopped by my place on Sunday.
    It was really nice to meet a fellow forumite, they shared photos.
    I must tell you all...
    I think seppo opossums are uglier than yours.
    They left me with some choice nuggets of timber that they carried from home
    and also some flash and very spinworthy gifts from Ed Reiss on the other coast.
    I'll ID them when the photo gets put up.
    Looking at Croc's work I had the feeling that if the three of us were together at the same
    time I would learn a great deal.
    One of the pieces of wood is false sandalwood.
    After carrying it out to the shed I smelled good
    for the rest of the evening.
    Now I have to find the USB cable.
    Stay tuned.
    John

    I am sure that Croccy has been called many things but an opossum is a bit far.

    Ian, John was refering to some photos of our local ringtails I was showing him.
    It was indeed an honour to meet TM in person, had a wonderful couple of hours chewing the fat and picked up some good ideas whilst there. I will be interested to see what comes out of the hard Aussie timbers I left with him,
    Crocy
