:applesauce: :applesauce: Congratulations on an absolutely fantastically beautiful finish!!!!

What an awful few weeks for your family. I am sorry to hear about the loss of your grandmother. And to be followed by a fire in their home and the losses there is beyond belief. I hope that things continue to improve every day for all of you.

The back story was horrendous.
I hope life gets back to some semblance of order soon.

As for the picture. It is amazing. It's a shame that it could have been better still, but the castle does really distract the eye from the dodgy bit of sky.

You have done a great job. It'll look superb when framed.

Regards

Richard

Thank you everyone, your thoughts and well wishes are much appreciated. My partner and I were incredibly lucky that a, we had moved out and b, the remaining bits of our belongings have not been touched by fire or smoke!

I keep telling my parents to try and think positive, they will be able to have almost a complete house redecoration and re-configuration for a fraction of the cost and hassle! My mum is getting bogged down in the things she may have lost (she doesnt know how well things like photos have survived yet) and I dont think she has felt the whole impact of this yet.

In other news I started a new project this morning - I have a slew of small christmas ornaments to make up so I will post some pictures of that at some point

Once again thanks for all your well wishes and comments - I really do appreciate them!
