26 forum posts 12 photos | I have received a scan of Mikes copy of the interview with Cherry. I really appreciate him taking the time to this. Also Ian J has generously sent me his copy in the post, for which i am very grateful. Would be brilliant to have these republished, Thanks Barry, it is an excellent book. Stephen |

![]() 3445 forum posts 62 photos | Off the top of my head they were not 'new content' but more sort of the best of the best which was well worth having all in one place. The one on tooling contained the Eurika backing off tool for example which as far as I'm aware did not appear in MEW but may have done in ancient ME editions. I'll dig out my set later on and have a look. regards Martin |

![]() 19226 forum posts 749 photos 86 articles | Good news, we have tracked down high-resolution proofs of the 2008 special, and I have got confirmation that we can reprint the interview feature about Cherry and her workshop in MEW. As it seems to be of such interest we will split it over MEW issues 294 and 295 (assuming no problems crop up). Neil |

![]() 3988 forum posts 1799 photos | Hi, yes brilliant, it's a very good and interesting read and will no doubt be welcome to those who haven't seen it. I had a chat with the good lady at Sandown Park once, very nice and polite lady, she actually spoke to me first. Regards Nick. |

Hi, yes brilliant, it's a very good and interesting read and will no doubt be welcome to those who haven't seen it. I had a chat with the good lady at Sandown Park once, very nice and polite lady, she actually spoke to me first. Regards Nick. She was sussing out the opposition... No, she's very humble and generous in her praise of other people's models, she doesn't judge others as harshly as she judges her own work! Neil |

![]() 3988 forum posts 1799 photos | Hi Neil, I don't think she had much to worry about. I had actually stopped for lunch and sat down at a singe spot after asking a those already seated if it was free and they said yes, couple of minuets or so later, Cherry Hill came out of a room near this table and sat down almost opposite, she was obviously with those people. it was shortly after that she started speaking to me, I was quite surprised and felt honoured at the same time. Regards Nick. |
