Hi All - Sorry for my absence; its been a week of everything except Tiki unfortunately. I am currently working on a couple of shop orders simultaneously and will flick a quick pic of this work when done; still at least a week or two away, bah!

BK: Check your 'hotcoffee' inbox later today...

Gman: 'Beauty in Ugliness' has always facinated me. I am often amused to hear compliments of beauty in regards to Tiki/Manaia/Taniwha, etc. Surely they have faces that only their Mothers could love..? :lol:

Surf n Turf: Cheers!

Tipua: Would you believe I have a large print of the 'War-Dog' hanging in my workshop? (well its true). The original is only postcard sized. The image signifies the 'Maori Battalion' - the Warriors going into bat under British command.

TGap: Ive been promising my wee 'Cashew' a Tiki for her collar too (although she wont look anything like the War-Dog! In fact, Id be surprised if she could lift her head up with a piece of that size! :lol: )

BenZart: So pleased you recieved good attention/compliments with Goldie! You dont want to take too much notice of those Aussies though! (only joking cobbers!) :lol: :lol: :lol: *Its a friendly (sporting) rivalry we have going on ever since Australia started producing decent Rugby & Cricket teams... (just think yourself lucky you werent a Kiwi stuck on the boat with them! Then you'd have been given a hard time) :wink:

Ill try to find something of interest for you soon. Cant stay away from Tikis for too long. In the meantime you lot enjoy your chippin/chizlin/whittlin & grindin!

Cheers
Tama :)
