Copy of a Letter of thanks from Fiona Mills:
Dear Alan
I can't thank you enough for the wonderful performance you gave at Julie's 6th birthday. Even the grandparents felt thoroughly entertained. Julie still talks about her big moment of becoming a magician and producing Milky Way your wonderful rabbit.
Brendan, my 4 year old, wants you to come to his party, so closer to the time I will be in touch with you.
Once again thank you very much, your show certainly helped to make the party the success it was.
Regards
Fiona Mills
