Sticks

 As you can see I have been making some more sticks. Normal service will resume ASAP.

And now for something…

 …completely different. I have always had hobbies even as a kid I collected coins (I still have them) stamps even bottle tops. You name it I have probably collected it. I remember years back that the Sun newspaper did an article to find the saddest man in Britain. The man they found collected bricks, at the time I had more bricks than he did and I collected old topographical postcards (I also still have them) which wasn’t as popular then as it is now.  Since the 1970’s photography has been at the top of my hobby list, and always will be, however much to my wife’s despair, I now have another hobby, stick making. It’s still very much work in progress, I’m still learning, but I really enjoy the process of making them. In fact, I was hoping to join a stick-making club to learn how to carve them and to use other materials for the handles but Covid-19 has put that on hold. As I say, it is work in progress but here are some of the sticks I have made.
