Geoff also made rocking horses for a few years Michele - no mean feat from a wheelchair and being a butcher not a carpenter.  He made 6 large & 4 small ones and it used to take him months to finish one.  It finally became too much for him and he retired from the shed. Will see if I can find some photos to take a snap of. The one with the red frame was an old one he renovated for a friend of his, it had bits missing and was in really bad condition.


Wow Jd, they look like my dads. Getting a bit teary. Going to find photos of dad's rocking horses.
guys, i am getting a bit teary 2  :'(

Yes, he would be quite capable CC.  Geoff used plans from Anthony Dew from the UK.

Looks great Uni. Honey BBQ chicken drumsticks with eggless fried rice.

Well done Uni, were you scared of PC's before you used yours for the first time?

We had prawn fried rice for tea.
