    Don't forget to get out in the sun or you'll look like Gollum.


    Watch out for the kids downloading music - 12gb is nothing when the kids let fly.

    If at first you don't succeed, give something else a go. Life is far too short to waste time trying.

    It is very easy to get excited over it A lot of weird stuff, but even that is great because of the amazing imagination and quality of construction. The bloke i like most now is Silas Kopf, just wish i had his ability in simple unique design and amazing construction. And one of my all time favourits for years now is 3/4 down the page - John Dunnigans Curly Maple and Silk "Cleavage" Settee, Inspiring stuff.

    thanks for that link Lig.
    Just browsed through it and there is a lot of incredible work....It is either highly inspirational, or just makes you want to give up depending on your mood.
    Finest work I have yet seen.
