Nice surprise

Post by Taffy »

I went to the mail box today, only to find a package addressed to me.

When I opened it, there was this magnificent Janet Selby Limited Edition Signature Pot. It is No.15 on Steven's list:

It now has pride of place on a shelf in our lounge room along with the Ausbonsai pin that came with i. You might say I'm stoked - and I am!

Many thanks has to go to Janet Selby for producing these excellent signature pots. They are so unusual and truly one of a kind.

Special thanks to you Steven for letting me have one of these. You've made me very proud to be the recipient of this pot.

Thanks as well to Ausbonsai for such a great forum.

G'day Petra, Taffy has posted several really good educational threads and is always offering help to rookies and those in need. He's friendly to new members and has helped me greatly by pointing out issues that have slipped through the cracks. Basically, as well as enjoying AusBonsai he is helping to foster the community and make it a better place for all of our benefit.

Goodonya Taffy!!!

Regards,
Steven

I am very pleased Taffy you deserve it and I do know that feeling. This is a wonderful forum, some times it gets a little hard but most times it is fun and full of learning and teaching.

Again well done and Steven another thank you for the site.
