Can you help Grandpa?
« on: Sunday 22 July 12 22:46 BST (UK) »
My friend has heard me rave about the wonderful magic that is performed on this thread on a regular basis.  Today she sent me this picture of her grandpa and asked if I could post it on Rootschat.  She sends her thanks in advance to everyone who can help restore Grandpa.

Thank you, Irene.  That restoration is absolutely wonderful.  I know my friend Allison will be delighted.

Spectacular work as usual.
