Posted by Alex Smyth on 01/11/05 at 01:26 AM Much more endearing than an urn on a fireplace. I think this would be a great bequest to leave to a special loved one, has me thinking of the only affordable legacy for my grandson. Thanks for the lovely inspiration, Max. (good vibes sent in your direction) |
