A mere box? How self deprecating of the makers. I think it’s superb.

I had to break off for a while,Gordon Ramsay was shouting profanities from the kitchen so I just told him to stir the sauce.
Gino d'Acampo did the pasta and Rick Stein did the vegs.

I like your naming structure Peri, made me smile!!!

If you've fallen out with your neighbour Pushfit you need to find an amenable farmer type with some pigs, or so I'm told!!!

We're home, at last, and we're now broke after an unscheduled purchase of another Doug Hyde sculpture, yes I know we said we weren't buying any more but this is a Christmas one!!!!!

Peri - ditch the boxes, I’ll be at yours at eight with some clay.

You may be on to something Pushfit, his original picture which started all this is very simple, but had a lot of meaning for several people!!!!

  • Calm down dears, it's not a miwwion, it's just £95, 875
Less commission to brokers, dealers and retailers, tax and expenses and material and tooling. costs, bribes to publicists plus any other overheads.

So the sculptor probably ends up on Universal Credit with about £7 to tide him over to January.

rofl
Quite possibly!!! His originals go for many thousands of ££££!!!
We now have 11 pieces, 5 sculptures and 6 prints, we have both the print and sculpture of two different subjects, it's all separately insured but the collection is worth around £5000 on the open market, far more than we paid for it!!!
