  3. Jamie during your short while in Cornwall you have accomplished a great deal more than what the toilet papers of record – SF and toilet paper Jr. Seaway News has ever done in all their years of operation. The whole bunch of them are mighty jealous of your accomplishments. Congratulations and I knew that you can do it and always have.
