      Ya, he didn't have any audio but i can just imagine some of the things said when it broke like that, it almost made me want to cry and I didn't even spend any time working on it.
      He's definitely a very determined person and that little vase is absolutely beautiful

      It's monkey puzzle I think. It grows like that. 1 Dead straight trunk with those symmetrical branches every couple of feet. It's my favourite tree (if that doesn't make me sound mental😂), but it oozes the stickiest sap everywhere and doesn't seem to stop. It's horrible to handle but looks amazing.
