Hi
I was one of the background at the Bluebell railway. The sun may have been out but it was very cold and damp.

I enjoyed the three days and Thank you Renee for making it so pleasurable and being so nice to us minions.

I enjoyed your impish smile especially when you when Ewan was getting wet chasing you along the platform

Today is July 04, 2009 and today is the fourth time I have viewed the movie "Miss Potter. I will watch it again and again, it is a great love story.

By the way where can I purchase Miss Potter's Sun Hat. I love it. Maybe you could e-mail me at anneguy205@yahoo.com I would greatly appreciate it. I live in Florida and have had Basil Carsenoma and am looking for a hat such as Miss Potter wears in the movie.

Love It,

I'm 73 and I still am greatly moved by a love story such as this one.

Thanks,
Anna
