I love your Lamps shad. How would I go about buying one?

That is a very interesting question.
Much to my annoyance, I'm going to have to open some kind of bank account.
This isn't as straightforward for me as it is for most. I won't bother with all the beurocratice details. I think I've got it sorted though but it's going to take at least a month.
I have four that I am doing bit by bit for others. If you are still interested in a months time and the couriers are up and running again I'll get a postage price and you can roll around the floor laughing.
I'm never going to make a good salesperson am I.
I had this ideal that I would like to meet the people I sell my work to; a bit like I won't give chickens to people I haven't met and approved. Of course you get full approval.
Up until fairly recently I've only posted as far as the UK or people have bought at fairs or come to my house.

Yay. Hand up here too, Shad!!!! I know the postage will be high ~ we ship certain things overseas ourselves ~ but if you are selling I will start saving. You've no idea what it would mean to have one of your lamps in our living room with the lounge complex!

You’ll need a travel adaptor as the power point plug will be European, but they’re easily sourced.

As you know, I too am interested. Please add me to the list.

Very cool. I assume weighing is a way to measure the number of bees.

or it determines some are eating more than their share of honey.

Nope. It's a way of measuring how much honey has been produced. If the hive gets overcrowded, the bees swarm. Weight is a good indicator of when you need to start a new hive &/or harvest your honey.
