Ahh….The kids bedroom!!! Yip I’m the same……… but ours did the courtesy of leaving home first. The bedroom is now the workroom!!!! As for flintlocks, well, I made my own 50 cal one as well. It weighs a ton, isn’t particularly accurate, but I still shoot it just for fun. It was a lot of fun making it but a lot of work!!!

I read that your son Simon engraved as well…is he still engraving as a career?

As I write this I’m watching on TV the Queens thanksgiving tribute to Sir Edmund Hillary in London and his laying up of his Knight of the Garter banner. A very nice gesture for the Queen to honour one of New Zealand’s greatest sons.

Cheers
Andrew
