Hi Ken, were the bows a composite with other woods. Surely orange wood, would have been a bit hard. I suppose the wood was seasoned????????????I am glad I have never been pursued by someone wielding a tomahawk.Will write to you on your internet address.Thanks Be

Hi Ken, I am extremely interest any way in Native American culture. Although I have only skimmed the surface of it. I told you I was interested in the fire opal arrowhead in Klamath. I thought it was utterly superb, and so are the varying shapes of arrowheads used for different purposes.I have done a lot of archery and crossbow shooting. (Targets only) could never kill anything. But I suppose if I had to I would - if sufficiently hungry. I am wondering what the composition of the Indian bows were, and was there ever any European influence on them. What was the Narive American strategy in attack? Interesting to find out. best........................ Bee

Hi Ken, Near Bettws y Coed, is the popular belief. The Snowdonia area North Wales. Hence his departure from the various locations as legend had it from Rhos on Sea, or a place very near called Aberkerrig. Best................... Bee

I once met John Pertwee in a lane in Cornwall. I stopped my car and nearly ran him over. I did not have my driving head on. The stuff they used to get up to was hilarious and soooooooooooo innocent. I always wanted to play aunt Sally. I think that programme was cult television for loads of big kids like me. Brilliant. The always ended up throwing cream cakes at each other B

I was brought up on the goons. Was in America last year and came across a book in one of the many bookshops they have over there, written by Spike Milligan, it was soooooooooo bad it was brilliant. I think that zany sort of humour is better than anything these so called comedy clubs can dish up. However, Milligasn poor man was a manic depressive and lived all his life in and out of depression, but of course when he was high, there was nothing to touch him. Who would belive that he made a record called 'I'm walking backwads for Christmas............................. across the Irish Sea. Completely bannanas.Best........................ Bee

Kenny Everrett was one brilliant comedian and artist. His cross over humour became more graphic as time went on. However he could make a cat laugh. All in the best possible taste, of course. Bee
