      Yes, agree with you Jeanie, production levels are high and so pleasing to watch, highly thought out, throughout. Such warmth from you and many, towards seeing me and my wood creations, I wish to return to show you all more, as I had no script or idea what to say, wish to be more expansive and explain fuller and better, show splitting the wood/branch. oooooo exciting possibilities. Much will spring and sprout from this time I sense. Thank You very much Jeanie.

    Richard and Julia thank you so much I really enjoyed that. As a civil engineer I know how much this country is indebted to the canal builders. They pioneered geology investigation and as a result we led the world at the time in this field, and our information today still benefits from this early work. I also enjoyed seeing jenny's work. We all need a creative interest like this to help us deal with the stresses and strains of life. Great stuff. Great video.
