Hello from Plymouth, England

[Countrytank]

Hello everyone,
To let ya'll know abit about myself, I was born in NewOrleans, Louisiana and raised in Livingston, Louisiana. After Highschool i joined the US Navy and whilst on a port visit in Plymouth i met my future wife. We were married 29 years ago this Sep. She didn't acclimitise to Louisinana and Wanted to come back to the UK so i left the the USN and moved to England, turning around and joined the Royal Navy where i still work today.
My pen turning is only been going a short time, 4 months, but i have to admit it is an addictive pasttime.
I have sold a few pens but if anything i have covered the cost of my tools and equipment.
I do it for the joy not the finance as if i did i would be a poor man.
So that is the skinny on me, glad to be aboard!

I'll bet that you miss that Cajun cooking! :biggrin: My wife is from NOLA. I spent 5 years in the Houma, Thibodaux area. LOVED da' food and da' Cajuns!

Enjoy this madness of pen turning. Here is a link to our Library: Library Index - International Association of Penturners

Lots of good information there and lots of friendly people here willing to help.
