Wow!

I don't know if he looked like this either - but I rather hope he did! (He looks so much healthier!)
I thought it was asking a bit much to mention 'colour' in the prescription but what you have done here is most impressive.
Your b&w version is just great too.
Thanks Saddles.

Irene -

Thankyou for your labours on my behalf.
It would appear that resurrecting the children is actually more difficult than the Grandpa Henry.
I'm not overly concerned with the aspect of the children - it was more the preservation of the only image of Henry.

Many thanks,

Ed

And again pig tail removed.

First a shave and then a haircut.
The tonsorial primping looks just great.
