    Talking We're famous - Calm's fundraiser

    Just received the latest edition of 'The Australian Woodworker'
    As I was flicking through it during one of those devil be damned video hookup meetings, I noticed a piccy of a familiar bowl. One of mine? MINE!! How did that get there?
    Ah ha - someone wrote up our bowl and platter (comp) fund raising effort for Cystic Fibrosis Vic organised by Calm.
    ... as detailed in this thread.
    I showed my 12 yo son the mag and the piccy of the bowl - not impressed. Made him read the caption ... now I'm a legend

    Just noticed this bit. Very dangerous thing to do , unless the bored people on the other end watching you reading a magazine are avid woodies too .

    This trick certainly works ok for normal audio teleconferencing though

    Well done to all involved

    My timing was out for this and did not get an entry in but I'm glad it is getting some worthy recognition

    I just went out and bought the magazine and my bowl is on page 54. SWMBO and kids were really chuffed. I was moderately pleased as well.
