Hey everyone!

Cheers F'Balls: I have deepened the eye sockets* and am considering little(!) inlays. Ill probably make a pair and then decide whether or not they'll stay..

BenZ: sorry about that. Ill stop now.

Babalu: I'd be happy to host "Tamas Rama Lama Chopin Jama" at this end.. :D

JP: thanks - extra large photo just for you**

**JP:(damn, it looks like a train-wreck through my eyes!):

Not quite the end of Tuesdays fun but I dont think there will be any more carving today. See you tommorrow (or maybe later on tonight for you nocturnal/Antipodean Shouters..?)

Tama :)
