I doubt I'll make a big deal of it like the last one, though it was nice to revisit this thread and draw a line under it all.

And why not make a big deal of it. Credit where due. COB does fantastic drawings we all like to see, you do fantastic carvings we all like to see. Just put it up
Mind, you will have a job to beat these
Wait for the pinks

Yes, I'm a pretty inexperienced ebayer as you can tell. Still, the listing without all those extras cost me 40-odd quid as it was.
