Reliqware Visit

We have been here once before last time we visited Tazzi, but it seems to be a place to visit each time. It is situated in the town of Latrobe. We are not allowed to take any photos there so these were taken from the street looking in. Surely that was permitted. It is a place that has just about every conceivable thing in the areas of dolls, brassware and educational games and projects. There is a fair bit of everything else as well... even coffee! But there was something they should have but did not. Peter found they did not have an abacus. Yes, there were chilren's versions there but not the more serious types of the age old calculator. So Peter is resigned to making one instead. Maybe he could make a number of them and supply them to an interested Reliqware.
Below is something that Donna's son David made, just from blu-tac. It is placed in this blog because it is the sort of thing that might also be found in Reliqware. David could supply them with some. He has a talent for creating organic 3D forms and we have encouraged him to work at this in more permanent medium than blu-tac while he searches for work elsewhere. It is hard to find work in Tasmania and this direction could go places.
