TESTIMONIALS

TESTIMONIALS

I just wanted to say a huge thank you! I am truly thrilled to have my paternal grand-father’s chair and maternal grand-father’s desk back, I am so happy with the work that you have done to them both.

As I believe my wife Nicola told you, my mother’s father took the desk to Egypt with him, when he and my grand-mother were posted there in the 1920s – somewhere there is a photograph of him at that desk in Egypt.

The chair also has great meaning to me. My father’s father was injured in WW1 and by all accounts he never fully recovered. He ran a pub in Sussex during WW2 and would often be found in the back room, sat in that chair, contemplating life – I dread to think what may have been going through his mind!

I love watching The Repair Shop and seeing the jubilation of people’s faces when they see their treasured possessions repaired and restored. Well, that was me today! I opened a bottle of Champagne, sat in my Grand-father’s chair and smiled.

Thank you Brian!

Ted
