G'day everyone,

I hope he's doing well.

Cheers,

I, like you miss him Paul. I think he is still active, as he has been to a few club shows, selling his wares, but unfortunatly for us, he is no longer active on the site, for some reason.
Which is know only to Pat.


Missing you Pat regards Pup

Last time I spoke to him he was having computer issues that stopped him more than anything else

Welcome back into the daylight Pat! We all love your work and would love to see more of it if convenience allowed, if not just nice to see you're still in touch :wave:

Also, is there anywhere in Melbourne that stocks your pots? Last time I bought one was when I met you at the YVBS exhibition early this year and haven't seen any since, are you coming back any time soon? :fc:

Best Regards,
Ryan
Cheers, Ryan

Ryan, thanks for your welcome!

The world still turns, the fishing's great and the trees are laden with good things to eat...I think I'll stay awhile.

No pots in Melbourne....but I will be there in May (with pots!)

Cheers,
Pat

Hi all,
here's Pat selling pots at the AABC convention in Melbourne, May 2012. His pots are still fantastic, and so is he.

Looks like another happy customer there. Quite glad I couldn't get down there, I know I would have walked away either penniless or potless. I'm not sure which is worse.
So the Redwood turns to the Bonsai and says "Lend me a Tenner"......
