Dear Karen,

 

I am writing to thank you for the wonderful painting of my three cats - Barnaby, Clyde and Victor. What a fabulous Christmas present! They are so lifelike and so much admired by all who come to the house. It was a complete surprise - I had no idea that the girls had organised it.

I will certainly recommend you to all my animal-loving friends.

 

With kind regards,
Betty Scrope.

Dear Karen,

 

I am sorry it has taken me so long to contact you but you know what it is
like time flies. Well what can I say Ian was gob smacked with the painting,
he was really surprised. Nina and Colin had a bet as to whether he would
cry and Nina won £5.00 Colin doesn't know him that well. It has got pride
of place and it looks wonderful. I can't say a big enough thank you, I have
passed your number to a couple of people so you may be getting calls. A
million thanks

Love,
Rita and Ian (he says 8 million thanks)
