Hi, thank you M'Lady M., my limited experience of the marketplace & business , whatever the craft , trade or Profession, is the customer is always right, for sole trading artisans, you have to make something to please the customer in a specific market , place , table or shop, the only person that will buy what the sole beginner artisan loves to make is the person that made it, even Michelangelo & Bill Gates had to please the local customers wishes to get a foothold, the first trap has to placed in well known haunts, no use making what the top hands that corner the market , they have near monopolies & you trespass in their Hunting grounds, if you try & compete as a newbie, please the popular market & work up, may I say, excuse me for generalising Lady M., good luck. PS, ha, ha , mixing my metaphors like Crazy Bull, 😀 |

I do though wonder if she would mind being refereed to as "The Iron Lady" This all in good fun Margret and no offense intended! |

I take it in the spirit it is intended  My only problem with being called by that nickname is that I feel it would be a disservice to the venerable lady to which it was originally given. Growing up my name was an extreme oddity. Mine is an old Victorian name and my classmates had the faddish names of Tiffanys, Tinas, Jennifers, Chrissys, etc. I did not personally know another Margaret, never really heard of another, and then when Margaret Thatcher came on the scene I was very excited and admit she became a hero of mine.  It is an honor to be lumped in with her.

sometimes I get lucky. Three years ago I made a cropped vest and posted it on my facebook page. Immediately I had orders for that vest coming out my ears. I probably made close to 18 of them and the money came in handy for Christmas. Perhaps I'll get a repeat of that experience. People tend to get things for their kids quicker than they would buy something for themselves.

PPS, well Lady T, put bread on my table & wood for my hearth, but I never had jam or icing on the cake, you "May" say & with Marie Antoinette T'May, it is going to get harder, but like all good medicine it tastes foul before you get better, but I could respect Lady T for being a happy family lady, but early days one can adopt as well as Bare sufferings as parents, God bless,

PPS, funny you should say that , A dear new neighbour named Margaret a real battle axe, used to chat & exchange notes & gifts with me locally the last few years, a real ISolder(sic) 😍 😚 😘 , but was thrown out of her castle by some knavish mad monks from the East of Eden, the Fair witty lady was to proud to tell me , the Lady & the tramp, Bum, Bum.
But faint heart never won the fair lady...& I do not know where my Maggie May has gone...!?! 😢😭😧
Puffin' on my burnt out corncob, some angel weed, backy mix...luv'Ya & leave Ya...
PS. I will watch some glass box looney tunes perhaps & find reality. Dreaming of my old wardrobe halflings..

I would love to own a Dunhill and an older Camoy. G'day Sir, my dream pipe is a my first Dunhill, preferably a Liverpool with a silver band, estate probably, when my boat comes in....I am not too familiar with Camoys , but their are some interesting examples of Japanese contemporary designs which are stunning.bye. |
