Actually seems like leaving them alone is the best option.


There will be more after all.



My friend Nic, who runs a Turkish tour company and is not averse to Turkish retros......

Has obviously been hit hard by COVID-19 closing his shop.

So in the mean time, he and his wife started to volunteer in Greenhill Gardens in Weymouth where they live.

They go to Portland Sculpture and Quarry Trust, which is where the srone for St Pauls Cathedral in London, came from.

Anyway, he was given a beginners piece to create and carve, sculpt, not sure what you call this work.





Meanwhile, his wife, Sally was allowed to continue with this, maybe she is the more artistic of them.



Progress, starting to look like a Budha.



And Nic’s spider progressing more steadily.



And a bit of a personal piece.




In other news, yesterday morning it was rather chilly here......


Frost.




And a pic, pulled off Facebook.


Now this would float my boat, as an ultimate vision for the truck.


Just need to find a complete, intact Extreme bodykit to fit, and a power hood or whatever it may be called.


Guess that did not take long ehhhhh.





Anyone got any leads on a full bodykit?


Here in the UK preferably.
