Dear King Kruger,

Thanks so much for the carving of your royal name. Your tagging skills are truly amazing and very much appreciated. How else would I know who to thank for this splendid cement work; where else could I find such belly busting laughter upon it's discovery?

I regret to inform you however, that over the past 40 years home style has evolved and I have outgrown you. This is why I am updating the mantle. Thanks for the memories.

All the best,

The Barkton House
