SPECIAL DEDICATION IN MEMORY OF MY VERY BEST FRIEND
I dedicate this website in its entirety in memory of my very best friend of all time, Dave (Geordie) Lisle, with whom I shared so many a memorable experiences during our army service together and afterwards, once back in civvy street.
We would have shared much more in our later years were it not for his early and sudden demise on 15th July 2005, at the age of 54 due to lung cancer. A greater and more meaningful loss of such a loyal and faithful friend as Dave I have not, throughout my life thus far experienced.
Our friendship was unconditional, where loyalty and looking out for each other came naturally. Davey was indeed a true and steadfast special friend, the likes of whom most probably comes along only the once in a lifetime. As I get older my memory has started to let me down. But when it comes to remembering Davey and the crazy things we did, it's just like it was only yesterday...
A true and special friend like Davey can never be forgotten and hardly a day passes without some memory of him comes to mind and thus greatly missed.

MY LOGO FOR LEATHER EMBOSSING AND BLADE ELECTRO ETCHING
I have long been stamping my leather work with an eight pointed cross below a bird of prey, using a couple of standard embossing stamps. For quite some time though, I had wanted something more specific and tidy, but procrastination is the thief of time, so it took me a while to fulfill my wish. When it comes to designing a personal Logo, one tries to make it as personally meaningful and distinctive as possible.
As wholeheartedly British as I am and having proudly and loyalty served Queen and Country for 18 years, I was actually born in Malta of Maltese parents.
Although Malta is known as the George Cross Island, it is the eight pointed Cross of the Knights of St. John that is universally recognized as the Maltese Cross. As for the Maltese Falcon, it's place in history is far more meaningful than depicted in the film, The Maltese Falcon. Its origin dates back to when the Knights of St. John were granted Malta as their base, for which they had to pay a token rent of one live Maltese Falcon annually.
