DEDICATION
This Website is dedicated to
the memory my parents Peter &
Irene Chilcott
without whom, obviously, I wouldn't be here...
...but also for their support of me going off in a direction that was highly unpredictable,
unstable and high risk,
that they wouldn't have chosen for me, but none the less I was 'stupid' enough to go
down.
I reckon that they'd be pretty pleased at how things have turned out... so far.
This website is also dedicated to Lyn's
parents John
& Pat Bristow,
who, over 20 years ago, let their daughter go off with this
"weirdo guitar maker"
from London, for them to just let us get on with it and give us their eternal
support, somewhere to
get a shower & a sleep on occasion, always having loads of food available
when we were about and for their
on-going support and encouragement for our goals as a family. We couldn't have
done it without you !
