Delayed Delivery

 Cardiff Violins telephoned me, to apologise for a further week delay in delivering the violin. It seems the delivery into them was delayed, compounded by a backlog in their workshop for setting it up. No good moaning, I have stacks to do painting anyway: A commission to finish, and sold paintings to pack and mail.

Because my family will want to name the violin with some ridiculous title, when they find out I'm getting it - still secret, I shall christen it 'Vi'. I pick this name as a link to my late wife, Patsy. Her second name was Lavinia, which I will abbreviate to Vi. I will then give it a surname of Lin ...... Vi Lin!

Even better an Irish surname Vi O'Lynne
