Sir Bobby Charlton signed my book and Photo.

[loobyloo6]

Over the moon with todays reply.
I sent this request via Old Trafford to Sir Bobby Charlton on the 7th of July. I sent the Man Utd year book from 1968 already signed by 5 and a team photo from  the 1966 world cup signed by all 8 of the remaining survivors from our finest hour in football. I also sent a donation and an Accrington Stanley Club tie..these were not returned:-D. I did E-mail Old traddord to ask if the items were still there around 3 weks ago and got a very nice reply saying they were there and the book had been signed but Sir Bobby hadn't signed the photo I e-mailed back thanking them for their response and was happy to wait another 3 months as long as the item's were safe. Today both item's have been returned to me signed by The Great man himself..Exstatic to say the least. The photo is now complete and has to be retired but the book will be of again. Call me Daf, Stupid, Brave...."He who dares" in this game. Thank you very much Sir Bbby Charlton CBE.
PS...Sent the packet recorded both ways and £3.50 worth of stamps not franked...Roll on tonights lottery.
