Hi Duncan

Only it’s mother could love it.

But to be fair, it’s almost as ugly as the original!

Cheers

Quick, before the bailiffs move in, get Coys to offer it for sale. I'd dearly love to read their catalogue description. Perhaps "richly patinated" would appear at an early stage. Maybe there is a separate genre, along with "Scandi Noir" and "Bodice Ripper" there is a certain sort of auctioneers catalogue fiction: "Rich Patination."

The link doesn't work for me; I assume this is a less than perfect special?

This might help Mike. But, be warned, once you have seen it, you can't 'unsee' it...

Ten minutes work ripping the "body" off and the rest may be worth a lot more!
