Good luck with this Andy. We are now far away in Scotland but will be thinking of iKON today. It was one of our favourite galleries and we bought several paintings locally.

It went very well, thanks, Kat.

One of the new editors was on Main Page yesterday with a DYK for the article he created.

Hopefully, we'll collaborate with ICON again in the near future.
