We are using the services of Graeme Cooper and more can be read of him in the attached. He was recommended to us very strongly and having met him twice now I am totally confident that we have chosen the right man.

The details attached give all anyone needs to know to book with us dealing direct with Graeme.

I would of course be happy to speak to anyone who has any questions.
