Almost a year ago today (owch!!!). And at the time, as F & P were only our vendor's solicitors, we didn't really have any contacts with them. As an interesting little side story though; I had a letter from F & P a few months ago. They'd noticed my blog posts, were non too pleased and demanded that I remove them :shock: All jolly nice customer service I think you'll agree!!! Anyhow, I really hope you get the move sorted without too much stress & don't hesitate in telling F & P how excellent their service has been!!! Thankfully for us our house move is now done & dusted.

Just initials would do, be much appreciated. Must be something about them that attracts fine artists...

The lady I am dealing with is useless. I get letters without attachments. She doesn't bother to send me letters that are logged on the web portal. As for updates or any form of communication, forget it! Do you know the name of the person at F&P? I'm curious to see if it's the same person. I wish I’d read this before I instructed this firm!

It has been my immense pleasure to enjoy on many occasions the 'simple' fare that Mr & Mrs Coley have presented to us. I can heartily recommend this fine establishment! Nothing & I mean NOTHING! I have ever had there could ever be described as ‘JUST’, for my part of the evening the Bruleé top I prepared was akin to Cathedral glass! :lol: ‘Just a curry!’ It has been my immense pleasure to enjoy on many occasions the ‘simple’ fare that Mr & Mrs Coley have presented to us.

Also (and people across the pond may well correct me on this), investment in the space-program & space exploration/milestones (moon, voyager, shuttle, hubble, space-station etc) was often seen as a potential vote winner, not to mention a huge big boost & feel-good factor for the country... 'Hey let's get the flags waving, we've built ourselves a Space-Station...' Sad to say that I'm guessing the only sure fire vote winner and flag waving stunt today was when some U.S guy fired a few bullets into Bin Laden... The Human Race is losing it's sense of adventure...

I responded that for me, it's not so much that it's the last of the Shuttle program that gets me, it's that there isn't a firm arrangement for a new ANYTHING to replace it. It's the lack of interest and support for the space program from either left or right sides of the government or even the whole of society. Nobody cares about anything that doesn't give immediate gratification. Too few people care about science OR art or even each other. What else is there? Nothing. Too many people just seem to live their little unambitious, unmotivated lives, struggling day to day just to one day end up dead. As much as I would absolutely LOVE to go to the Smithsonian and see it up close, it will never replace waking up early and going out and seeing it suddenly appear like a new star in the west, blazing across the morning sky... It's not that it's a machine going by, it's the people that work on it, in it, for it, about it... It's the human spirit of adventure, of building a better world to live in that is dieing. The Shuttle program is just one of the larger "animals" going extinct, with countless other science/art/social programs too small to make the news that have already gone before it. Live animals are WAY more exciting to watch than seeing extinct taxidermied ones in a museum, especially when we are those animals.
