The Axe Man Cometh! Just another Thursday!

First past the post tonight its Zen Master John Campbell, I suppose I could have kept him out in the cold until 7.00 PM. But I`m known for my kind heart!!!
Who will be next, is enthusiasm running high tonight. As I write the door bell goes again and its Stephen!

Is that a Selenium red your holding, or are you just pleased to see me

Mission accomplished, "I`ve got your sheep, everyone of them"

Tess apparently made it here tonight unscathed. What happened at Bells bridge, both Gilian and Tess worked quite happily together all evening, with Bill working merrily across from them. And the pony tail thing?, a sign of new alliances?
Are Michael (the engineer) and Glass Master Joe the only people out of the loop?

Cuttin` up Freida

Ruths design finalised, templates ready, glass being cut, building and leading starts next week.

Michael (the Veggie) in YET another dinky little pony tail builds his panel, whilst Michael (the Engineer) and Glass Master Joe wonder what in hell is going on with all of these pony tails.

Well, what they were really discussing was colour and texture for Michaels tree panel, which is starting to progress nicely!

Its Tuesday Night and its Building Night

All design work is now done, templates have been cut, glass is being chosen and panels are being built, all in the space of 7 short weeks!!!!!!
