  2. Pure magic!

    BTW, I was wondering... where did you find that kind of hand held pencil sharpener? I can't find one which will sharpen that long point!! (as my electric/battery one do)

    If I can't get it online don't bother anyway, because I live in Spain.

    Greetings from Barcelona!

  4. Nice one! Pencil sharpener is cool, but I'm more curious about where I can find a rope ship like that! It'd shave a good 10 minutes off my commute.
