Yup, starting in November, expect to see a new build thread on here as davewhite builds me a Paithi Peadar, to be known as 'Molly'. I couldn't put it down in Halifax so bit the bullet  |

Congrats Leo. Why "Molly"? Keith Molly is my Mother-in-Law.. a lovely woman, big on opinions, larger than life and, occasionally, a right royal pain in the butt. This'll sound callous, I know, but she's coming to the end of her natural and, frankly, the only way I could afford the commission was an inheritance coming through (assuming Sara gives me an of it!) - something to which I alluded here. Of course, this all probably means that she'll last another 10 years, but I've found that sometimes God needs a gentle shove and Dave has told me not to worry - he'll build it slow  It'll be a fitting reminder of a wonderful woman, of good traditional Lancashire stock who, like the Paithi Peadar is fiercely independent and louder than she has a right to be but who had the foresight to let me marry her daughter |
