Some of you may have noticed one of our forum moderators, David Allinson, hasn't been around for a while.... That's because he's in Bogota lapping up the sunshine the jammy beggar! :-)
But just because he's in some far flung place doesn't mean he's stopped modelling - take a look at his latest project....

Goodness PD’s – in late November 05 I promised David a small sample of our OZ - ‘Feast Watson’ - ‘Mastertouch’ natural CARNUBRA wax as an alternate to any other deck planking final surfacing medium – David came back with his postal address in Spain, but I think my secretary posted the parcel to the alternate address in Bolivia………David, when you get back from visiting the rello’s & if the parcel is not in your Spanish letterbox, please give me a yell & I will get an other envelope to you in Spain – humble apologies Derek

I left Spain in November and have been here in Bogota ever since. I had
planned to be back in Spain by Xmas, but is was so nice here that I
decided to stay a bit longer.
Many thanks for the wax which is probably waiting for me back in Spain.
All the best
David
PS Anyone else fancy trying the bottle exercise?
