If I were creating Pendraken I wouldn't mess about with Romans and  Mongols  I would have started with Centurions , eight o'clock, Day One!

From the Western Daily Mail, April 4th

"... an elderly man was rushed to hospital last night after a bizarre accident involving a bonfire, a chain saw, two strangely decorated boiled eggs and the Nottingham Street Map from 1986. The man, cautiously identified by sheepish locals as Phil the Matron, and 'ooh ... that odd fellow who keeps playing with his little thingies', is thought to be conscious, but not coherent. Then again, this may be his natural state. The man's wife was not hurt in the accident, but her wooly cardigan was ruined.

As he was loaded into the ambulance, the man was herd to shout '49 hours, 27 minutes. Tell them 49 hours 27 minutes.'

The boiled eggs have been destroyed by the Police, and the Nottingham Street Map taken into protective care."    

;D  ;D  ;D
Buy plenty of Matron's sculpts now!

If he keeps using the chainsaw, the value of his work will soon go up.

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Leave me alone !
You're all horrid.b-(

Cheers - Phil.

We only do it because we love you. It's like pulling the pigtails on the girl we like.

Now go and sculpt something.

I have neither the time nor the crayons to explain why you are wrong.

Gross exaggeration !


It was 2 hours, after the accident with the hedge cutters. (YEARS ago)

(Use hedge cutters right handed..... Clear cut bits of hedge away with left hand.....Get timing wrong...Bring blades and left hand together.....Squeak pitifully !........Can't even see the scar now......But it was a right mess......Thankfully I cut down the finger, rather than across)....Sadly true, again. :-[

Cheers - Phil

It beggars belief the number of accidents you've had!

Yes......But (so far) I've been a jammy g*t and got away without serious injury !

Only time I thought "Oh ****, what have I done," was when one of the horses threw me, and I landed on my neck and shoulders.
That was a scary half a minute, lying dazed, making sure I still had feeling in my hands and feet.

Own stupid fault again....A non rider getting on a gee-gee without a saddle or head collar, and just holding on to the mane......She took off, because a couple of ponies she was sharing the field with thought it would be fun to have a race.

Mrs T said she was really impressed that I managed to stay in place the first time 'Hippy' did a huge buck......The second time.....I went flying.
I've not got on a horse, since.

Cheers - Phil

Just a few suggestions to keep you safe.

Very retro.


I know, you found this one uncomfortable first time round.


this one leaves the hands free for sculpting.


Not sure this one is too practical.

Only moment I had like that was getting a "stinger" on the rugby pitch.  Actually thought I'd broken my neck!  Very scary!
