I'm gutted and so is my workshop.

[Sawdusty surfer]

Some lowlife broke in to my workshop, stole the power tools and torched the rest, including all my stock of my carvings that were ready to be sold this spring. Look :-(

[grumpyhack]

James,

Having seen some of your stunning work I really feel for you. They weren't quick 'knock up' carvings but real craftsmanship and a labour of love.

So sorry. I hope you can bounce back but it must feel pretty hard at the moment.

[rexclark]

Fucking scum.

[abdoujaparov]

bastards

I cant think of anything else to say, sorry

[MrZigster]

Words fail me. I always make a point of looking out for your stuff. What is wrong with some people? Knicking stuff isn't enough of a buzz so they have to torch the place?

[pehaw]

That is fucking awful.

Really sorry for you mate, always been impressed with your work.

From Glasto forum :

So sorry to hear this mate, totally devastating for you and hope the scumbags get caught.

My girlfriend seen your work at Camp Bestival last year, while myself have admired it for years at Glasto.

That's awful news.

[Ed209]

awful awful stuff. So sorry. Really hope the police catch them and lock the scum up.

Do you/they have any leads?

Not sure I'm familiar with your work or not. Are you the fella who does the toadstalls at glasto?

oops double post.

[Ed209]

That's me.

[MrZigster]

I have to ask the question.

Insured?

Wouldn't blame you if you weren't. It's a gamble, insurance.

[t8yman]

I dont know you or your work, but thats a real shitter. You have my sympathies.

[Mardy]

Ah man, I'm really sorry to hear this. Always loved your work and it's one of our little first day at Glastonbury traditions, a walk up to your stuff and a sit around the table/on those amazing chairs and things.

It's a real pisser, can't imagine how devastated you must be, but please keep on going, don't give up, you make things of real beauty and worth, and there's not many people can say the same.

[feral chile]

I'm so sorry this has happened to you. I never understand the impulse to destroy.

I hope you're able to recover from this, and to continue your fine work.

[Katster]

Can we do anything to help??

I don't know you or your work either but that is so fucking sad.

[eFestivals]

Soz for you

Don't let the bastards grind you down.

[Steve P]

Impossible to understand what goes on in the head of people like that. Hope you can get things back up and running soon.

[Rachie]

So sorry to hear this. Your work is absolutly amazing.

[Rufus Gwertigan]

Shit :-(
