...I'd still really like to see my Mum get some sort of benefit from this object. We have talked about a shadowbox...

HOLY S#*T!!! Mate, I had heard the shortened version of this story first-hand, but to be honest thought it to be about as substantial as the 'smoke' of the 60's... But there you have it!!!

As hard as the thought of parting with the Sacred Object may be... Your Mum is sitting on a GOLDMINE!!! *Some sort of benefit, jeez...

You know me well Paipo, and you know I personally would never part with such a TAONGA, but oh me, oh my: What would that sucker be WORTH? even in its broken state... I would certainly be seeking professional help with the repair dude!

Calling in all favours Ive got to get at least a picture with that man; can you swing it? happily travel to see it...

Thanks for posting that mate: Im sure there are Beatle-fanatics thoughout NZ/world/Universe who would be fascinated to hear the fate of that Hei-tiki. I reckon the story would make the NZ news (on a quiet day, :lol:)
You should consider passing it on to a Beatle-site..? (the story, NOT the tiki!!!)

That naughty sister of yours... tut! :lol:

Im a changed man... Tama
