Thought I should share this with the world

Les
Just a note of thanks for the photographs. After a trying period when I was starting to wish I had bought Sandra slippers she is well chuffed with the pictures and the main one now hangs in the lounge and has drawn many favourable compliments from friends and neighbours. As much as anything Sandra felt that the time up in your studio was the most fun we have had as a family since the kids left home.
Cheers
Tom
