Well, you've done a pro out of a job, but fair play - not your choice. Hope it's worked out..... but you can begin to see why professionals charge what they do - it's not as easy as it looks!

I love footy! The theme music is 'Peter and the Wolf', innit? That's by Prokofiev - a Ukrainian. Suppose they could have mixed in a bit of Fred Chopin (Polish) to balance it....... but you can't...
