Don't know if you've seen these that i've been making................

I've had seven of them up on the wall at the fishmarket for the last month or so, yesterday I get a call at about half four saying there is a bloke that wants to buy one, but has to take it away with him as he's not from northampton................I pedal down with my drill.
I arrive to find a chap standing in front of them.................he's a nice bloke, from Uganda, but now lives in L.A, they remind him of the cattle his family farms back home, he loves them all and it takes him some time to decide which one to have................eventually he decides, so I take it off the wall, wrap it up and off he goes, before he goes though, he asks me for a website address or email, so I give him my site address, in return he gives me his saying he takes photos, this morning I take a look.....................
www.gumadesign.com
on there is a beautiful set of bicycle photos..................I'm blown away, especially with the coffin one. Then i read his Bio.....................turns out he's an actor, and has most recently played Usutu the wandering shaman in Heroes.......................well, bugger me.
Then, today, I get a call, you've sold another.............great, i'll be down in a bit to collect the cash.........I arrive about 5, grab the cash, celebrate with a banana bread beer, have a chat with a few people, then peddal back home......as I get home, my phone rings, it's mum......"where are you?"..........you have to go back to the fishmarket, someone wants to buy another skull.....................cool, i turn round and burn back down there, I walk in to find The mind reading Cop and the cheer leaders adoptive mother ( From Heroes) standing in front of me.......................
she buys two, he buys one...............they are both gushing about the skulls and are really nice people..............what a mad day.
so, if I'm not around much, i'll probably be hanging out with my new buddies in L.A.
I S**t you not.
