Free Wooden Spoon

[Bonefish Blues]

Have they been trained to eat other foodstuffs than porridge? If so, I'd be delighted to have a chance to win one of them, thanks.

A lovely festive gesture...
Another name for the ever expanding hat, please!

 

[Turdus philomelos]

I love a nice piece of oil turned/whittled wood.
Can you pop my name in the draw hat please.

More woody than irony, I think.

 

[ianrauk]

Yes please.

 

[Randomnerd]

any chests or trunks to give away?

I've some trunks, but I don't think they'd appeal in a raffle.

For the avoidance for doubt or confusion, you win one spoon in this draw.

If anyone wants to buy a spoon, then I'll post some pictures of current stock on Saturday, after the draw.

N.B., an eating spoon takes around two hours to make, if you factor in harvesting the wood. The whole process from tree to spoon is around six weeks, and I work the stages in batches of around thirty, to get some uniformity of product. A decent eater in birch, ash or sycamore is around £22. A cooking spoon is around the same, depending on details etc. The range is £18 - £36. Takes around ten winters to get good enough to make money at them....

Useful information, many thanks. To be fair I'd probably be a lot faster by now if I got myself into gear and practiced a bit more...

Edit: doh! I'm an idiot

 

[Hill Wimp]

Yes please.

I can then attempt to emulate yours.

Living on the beach the RNLI are hero's as far as I'm concerned. The fact they are all volunteers makes them even more amazing.

 

[Deleted member 26715]

Oh! I wasn't angling for a spoon!

I don't think it was aimed at you

Isn't it a bit cold this time of year?

Oops, I think you are right
