Thanks Tom Barron

[PenPal]

Some time back a real nice guy called Tom Barron noticed we were going through hell backwards when my wife was found to have not one but two of the worst blood borne Cancers.

Tom sent me a PM asked me what was Wilmas choice in Colour, I always new it was a tone so got around with vague questions, by surprise to me it was red.

I let Tom know and he sent two of his special blanks from the jaw bone of an Alligator C/W teeth sticking out. He sent two one for each of us.

So last week on the fifth anniversary following the major surgery and an all clear from the tests I made this pen and tailored it to suit her hand.

Thanks again Tom have not seen you around as much these days.

Peter.
