Emma.

Thank You!

So, If this Person was a 'Tilar & Plausterer' (which probably Traslates into: Tiler & Plasterer?).

I think this must say (something like):

'Plasterer' (in which case Very Bad Handwritting!) ::) ???

That's what I thought...or maybe Parchest has something to do with drying?  I'm clutching at straws here...!!
