    Llew has returned ...

    Bang on time ... There was a knock on the door yesterday and this is what arrived ...



    Thank you to everybody who has participated on the last 14/15 month adventure of Llew. I am gobsmacked with all the little goodies that Llew has acquired along the way. I am going to let Elaine open and look at it all this evening. Will take pics.





    I will put together a pic travel log from the very start ( thats with Llew No.1 which started with Jock) asap and post up.
    After this week, Llew will be free to travel again if anyone is interested in wanting to board n lodge him for a short while and take some pics too.
    More pics of Llews return will follow over the next 7 days. Theres a lot going on (folk club/rugby n parties).

    I am glad to see the old boy made it home and brought goodies.

    Oo! What's a singing bowl? Does it resonate when you strike or rub it?

    Hey BREN.. looks like it to me. (Might be wrong) ..and looks like a nice one. They resonate when you roll the wooden sounder around the rim and gong when struck also.

    There were some fantastic singing bowls at Camden Market, London when we were there on Sun. Really large one's that had a fab low resonance. Unfortunately they were £175 plus.
    Here are a few pics of the artifacts that have returned with Llew.






    The badge is on my St David Cilt and the flask is going in my sporran (fully loaded of course) and the kangaroo shall hang on my sporran belt. Will pic them up here a bit later today.

    Again, A HUGE THANKYOU to everyone who has hosted Llew and to everyone who put in all these wonderful items for Llew to return with.
