Any other suggestions?

Spooky...

Sorry, Dave, it's definitely there in the original you sent!

We meant to edit out the cowboy hat along with the leather waistcoat, thong and sequinned chaps...

Neil

It's on my copy too! I'm genuinely baffled.

As for the leather and sequins, those pictures are for new series I'm planning for the magazine. 'Men and Their Moobs' will feature well-known modellers posing tastefully over their lathes. Just as well MEW is already posted in a plain cover. Me in a thong is as offensive as it gets...

To repeat what is written elsewhere:

A Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all our readers!

never mind you in a thong, check this out! I'm not Knight George. This is our annual Souling Play, raising money for the local hospice performing a play which goes back hundreds of years. For some reason lost in the mists of time the old woman is always portrayed by a man, and in our version the Devil is portrayed by a woman.

While a lot of you get the cold and the snow, down-under the rest of us put up with the weather and 6" long yummy local Tiger prawns for Christmas lunch **LINK** (washed down with a few cold tinnies).

Anyway, to get you in the mood, here is an Aussie version of 'Jingle Bells' I hope that you enjoy! **LINK**

Keep safe everybody and have a really beaut holiday!

Hi, Merry Christmas everyone. My daughter, son-in-law and two of my granddaughters came round yesterday, the eldest of the two granddaughters who is 5 years 9 months, had a nice time finding some little extra presents hanging on my tree and she enjoyed getting the presents from under the tree for my daughter and son-in-law and her baby sister. When it came to reaching for my son-in-law's one she whispered to me " I know what daddies one is" so I asked what she thought it might be and she replied "Booze!! but I'm not going to tell him" that really made me smile.

Regards Nick.

We could have a workshop diversity series

"Machine tools and mankinis"

"Oil resistant fashion clothing"

Curly may have appreciated that kinda thing

Disgraceful. Shamelessly using an innocent mini-lathe to sell Baby-doll Nighties! I like the hat though...

Hi Danny, merry Christmas to you and all in the antipodies, I spent Xmas in Oz ten years ago as my daughter got married at Nelson Bay in NSW on December 29 th. I remember that we spent Xmas day on the beach, bit of a shock when we flew back in early January and the temperature here was minus 5. I loved my time in Oz, much to my wife's disgust I brought back with us a kit for a model stationary engine, but that's another story.
