Nice to see another graduate of the South Pacific Surfing Champs here.

I fondly recall my metalwork lessons; I definitely preferred them (and John Morrow's woodworking) to Hugo Shaw's art classes. (Hugo was good, it's just that art didn't resonate with me at the same level as that of metalwork and woodwork).

Both Trevor and John were sticklers for workplace safety, especially around the lathes.

It was through them that I gained my love (and respect) for metal, wood and their associated tools.
