They have been left in the garden for a number of years but seem to be in very good order. However I would love to bring them back to their orginal condition. How do you go about polishing the stones? Any tips?<br /><br />Thank you...Grenville Houserhttp://www.outrageous.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5654195680992385326.post-30777885598690862632008-10-13T21:48:00.000+01:002008-10-13T21:48:00.000+01:00Now that's an idea I'm going to take up.Now that's an idea I'm going to take up.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5654195680992385326.post-13953697879614387992008-09-16T00:28:00.000+01:002008-09-16T00:28:00.000+01:00Is there an argument for collecting jpegs of vario...Is there an argument for collecting jpegs of various stones (and granite) building up a viewable register identifying the backgrounds where known. <BR/>Retain and spread our existing knowledge by creating a viewable register on this site????Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
