One happy young lady collected her parlour today: Heather's parlour. Hope she enjoys playing it as much as I enjoyed it's making

No wonder she is happy. Your guitar looks wonderful.

A very, very fortunate young lady. That is one stonking guitar! I have no doubt at all that she will enjoy playing it Francis - in fact if she enjoys it even half as much as I did, then I'll have enjoyed it twice as much as she! Keith

Hevs is chuffed to bits! She says 'Lily' is really comfortable on her knee and in her hands. I've no doubt that her love for playing will be reignited. Job well done, Francis! Of course, she's not had much time with her yet - after a detour to Ilfracombe we met up with scorpiodog, Sharon, Charles and Jan in South Molton for drinks, food and laughs. ''Twas a great evening, so it was - and Hevs was made to feel right at home. As I knew she would be. Tomorrow, we're going to watch Sharon buy lots of meat at the Christmas Fatstock Show

Awesome job Francis I'm sure it will provide her with a lifetime of inspiration and joy and that's a very special thing.
