Yup woodworm Anne :blink:

[wendy w.]

Would that be the 'Greater Dorset Woodworm'?
When I was a child and my gran lived in Dorset, my parents visited lots of the churches and saw lots of woodworm holes, in some churches the holes had even spread to the stonework too! :huh: so they decided that there must be the 'Greater Dorset Woodworm' that ate into stone as well as wood :P (I guess I was on some of those trips but I was very small at the time, but I do have memories of going past churches with ravages to the stonework, which my parents ascribed to these pests) Sometimes you can still find out breaks in other parts of the country too :lol:

I hope you are not in pain, and better now. get well soon! smooth recovery!!!

[Geneva C.]

I'm not sure about all these worms. I don't like them, nor their bigger version.... snakes.

Anyway, look what I got!




Isn't it pretty! The wood is Coco Bolo. Let's hope it doesn't get worms! hmy:

It is made by Scott Lincoln in Clinton Washington. He is a veteran that is retired and makes pens to sell as well as give to veterans. His wife Cindy is a quilter and makes Quilts of Valor for veterans. www.s-c-handmade.com or www.finewoodpens.com

Love, it, Geneva, a true original! :silly: :lol:

[Pamela N.]

What a lovely piece, Geneva. DH made himself a knife a few years ago using coco bolo wood for the handle, so I know first hand how beautiful that wood is.

[Nancy R.]

It's beautiful, Geneva! Are you going to use both ends? At the same time? I wonder if I can get one of those in Colorado....

[Geneva C.]

Sure Nancy, you can get one! In Washington and Colorado pot is legal. Anyone can buy one. The other end is a handy jewelry clasp putter-on-er!

And for the record, I don't smoke.... anything. My asthma is bad enough without adding to it! But I do love a good joke!

Take care,

Geneva

PS. Pot holder! Rita! That's great!

[Geneva C.]

The penny just dropped. Pot holder, not potholder. I never woulda thunk, Geneva!

Oh dear :huh: I'm slow - must be the cold.
