Hello Stevie

Saw Sally Martin at a party on Saturday and she said you were still in Scotland. I was just thinking of you as Sheena, Fiona (Mc Neile) and I meet up sometimes and Sheena & I speak often. I also work for Healthy & Organic Living Magazine and am trying to put a supplement together on green build/environment. Are you a wind turbine fitter?
I suspect you won't remember me but it'd great to hear you are well. I also do open houses with my partner Christian (see www.christianfunnell.com) If you are in Sussex in May, come and see us!

Bit cold for bare legs - they look less hairy than I remember! Do you do commissions? My milk stand needs repairing.

Hi Steve, noticed that the lathe had moved from the old exchange. Realised why after a chat with Bill W. on the pier. Have fun, hope to see you next time we're up. Simon Ware
