Ahhhhhhhh!!!!!

I said he was Lewis...I said he was Lewis.........I did I did .......really I did!

OK....I said it was Louis.......but that is close!

 ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Well done to everybody...I am sure that this is the right bloke....although I'm still having a bit of trouble with the Hope part even when I squint......but I recon that the ink is missing in some of the letters.

What a wonderful effort.

Indie.  Where are you.
Its horrid here.  Mind you it is gone midnight now...... only flying insects visible amongst the blackened night.
You did, you did, you did say lewis.    And I think you are right, there are bits of the writing missing.
So, well done to you.
A great joint effort  (IF it is Annies man).

Let us (i darent say it) HOPE it is.

Susan.

Funny, isn't it that I couldn't see the L, but I could see the HOPE.     :)
