Hi Baze, how is Malta? was it a return to the roots change or just found a nice corner of the world?
Any photos of your work in Malta? timber types etc etc tell us more.......
Hi baze, welcome. you're sure a long way from home!

Hi Baze...welcome to the forums.
Isn't Malta the place that has gorgeous weather year round?:?
Welcome Baze
Usually yes but at the momment it's raining we are in autumn here at the moment but summer is nice maybe a little too hot. Nice beaches
Have not taken any photos of my work yet and me being a keen photographer shame on me. I mainly like to do intarsia as a hobby as after work doing furniture kicthens and bedrooms mainly so my days are spent around wood.Quote:
