0:09.6 | Firstly, an apology. |
0:11.1 | I know that there have been lots of you who have asked questions on various comment forums, |
0:15.4 | whether it be on Messenger or on Facebook or indeed on YouTube and things like that. We do read them all. |
0:23.0 | There's no need for you to feel like an orphan. That's a quote from one of the poor old |
0:26.7 | question, commenters who feels that we don't read them. And we do get through them all and |
0:31.1 | see them. So firstly, an apology there. There's no need to feel like an orphan. Secondly, |

1:32.9 | I apologize for the costs of international postage if indeed you choose to send me that way. |
1:38.3 | And I will frame them and put them behind me because they will be precious to me. |
1:42.0 | Anyway, a bit like a golden ring. |
