    a poor weekend

    well its been a bit slow on the spoon front this weekend,she who must be obeyed wanted under the stairs boxed in so all my woodwork has been courtesey of B&Q.
    i did manage to get one made today though out of a piece of ash, it took a while to make for some reason,not that it matters,the grain was all over the place.

    Cor that looks a biggen,kev!.Bet you were getting withdrawal symtoms,going so long without producing a Spoon.
    If youve box in under the stairs it'll make a nice cupboard for your stock of spoons,???
