Wow ! Claudenancy, The Janus necklace is stunning...... And so perfect with your colouring. And yes, Tahitians team beautifully with rubies.......:) (I named this Josh and Ruby.....:D)

Hey ! You bin and gorn and done it ! Nice work Maryd. :)

Now you've got me - maybe 20lb. ? Caitlin and Boo will maybe know the answer to this....

This is one of mine. The long Sheri-wannabee I've been talking about. 183cm. (72 inches). Sorry there's no neck shot - will try for one tomorrow.
