            Would have had you down for Winchester rather than Rugby. I assume he is the sporty sort. Roedean is probably the best choice for Girls. Still couldn't send them for two years even if I wanted to (and my wife explicitly doesn't want to).

                  I like playing with wood. I can spend hours just stroking it.

                    Making ukuleles when you can buy a perfectly good one for less than the cost of the wood

                    Making furniture, ditto

                    Pointless but strangely satisfying. If you want some guidance from an expert with a great workshop google Tom Kealy in
                    Ilminster. For furniture, not ukuleles.

                      my oak furniture is even more pointless than that.
