Hello Haydn.Just a short mail to let you know that, as promised, my (rather long) parcel arrived today. No breakages, just perfect. This is an absolute masterpiece, much better than I expected, and I can hardly wait to hang it on my wall. Once again, thank you so much for my wonderful diagram, and please thank the framer who did a very good job. Kind regards from a very sunny London. JM. April 09
