The LeAvEs of the old tree had become paled with some disease or other. Stuart took the reluctant decision to cut down the beloved hazel tree. Having stripped off the branches, the trunk looked in good condition, so Stuart put it in the outdoor shed to dry out. In idle moments he would dream about what he could make out of it. What about a gravel - but there was no one in the family involved in legal stuff, so that idea was set aside. He started thinking about making a model of the tower of babel, but considering what happened to the original planners, he thought better of pursuing that. At last he settled on the idea of making a model of a camel, although he needed to enlist the skills of his young artistic daughter Grace to make the fine detail.
