But, a huge Thank You so, so much.<br />I never, ever won a bid.<br />I am over the moon.<br /><br />The beautiful Fisherman's Kep will be a special gift for my 86 year old dad, Eric Holmberg.<br />Especially, with his memories of years gone by, of the link with the Norwegian and Fair Isle people, your community will certainly be top discussion, during my Christmas visit.<br />All I now have to ensure, is a visit back to Fair Isle, sooner, rather than later! <br /><br />I must admit, Elizabeth Riddiford, knitted me a fabulous Fair Isle cap and dad was quite upset, when I refused to part with it.<br />Therefore, the present will be even more of a surprise.<br /><br />Once again, thank you.<br />Also a big thank you to the remarkable Fiona Mitchell. Her craftwork will be treasured by the Holmberg family, for years to come.<br /><br />Kind Regards<br />Lorica BrownAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6420769935370067037.post-75654788427990212172011-08-31T22:37:32.392+01:002011-08-31T22:37:32.392+01:00Lorica! is the lucky WINNER!

I am sorry I took the title My Fair Isle...perhaps it would be even better suited for your blog, but 'tis done I suppose.<br /><br />Your story is amazing. Fair Isle hold a place in my dreams - maybe someday I will get there - but in the meantime I enjoy your photographs and this small sense that I know the place through your blog.<br /><br />The hat on auction is amazing, but the woman who made seems even more so. Hope it raises lots of cash for the project! <br /><br />Best, RobynRobynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06391086267728343589noreply@blogger.com
