Send Me a Postcard and a Mug / PLUS a Blind Wood Turner

BBC News – Blind woodturner: I don’t want my eyesight back

Chris Fisher

This is hard to believe. In BBC news stream today but Graham saw him working at a UK Men’s Shed annual event (Shedfest).

Standing a metre in front of the lathe that Chris Fisher was turning on behind, it was not obvious at all that the woodturner was blind. Just like this photograph.

A lovely man with a very moving story and not a sign of self pity.

Blindness actually gave him something.

Shedder DaveT has  shed a light (there’s a joke in there) on mugs. He has continued his manufacturing with a pile of mugs.

These are destined not for Shedders yet, but as a promotional thank you to the GP Link Worker team.

Words say, “A shed is not a Shed when there’s no one there.”
