Hi folks,
Here's a picture of myself and my youngest daughter Lorraine (aged 11 at the time)with Ron Senior on our visit to the Emmons Factory in the summer of 1995. You'll notice that Ron didn't give up an opportunity to do a bit of advertising and if you check his feet, you'll see he has two odd shoes on. That's because he was suffering from gout at the time. I had a great day there and met lots of great guys.

Nice one Billy! I wish I had taken some pics when I had the tour of the S.I.T. string company in Akron Ohio with the founder Virgil Lay R.I.P at 80plus years old he was still passionate about the string business and his secret process for stopping the plain strings from slipping.
