Dear Caroline

I have just read your post about the arm chair and coincidentally will be meeting with the design team including architect, interpretation experts and interior designer today.  We are discussing detailed plans for the layout, decoration and furniture at Moat Brae where we will be opening a National Centre for Children's Literature and Storytelling inspired by JM Barrie's time here.  Moat Brae was his 'enchanted land' and he spent the 'happiest days' of his life in Dumfries. 

Our plans including creating a visitor attraction where we will tell the story of these happiest days, the early inspiration and influences on Barrie as well as celebrating his work, particularly Peter Pan.

If you would like to discuss the possibility of the chair being enjoyed in this very special place please contact me at catherine@peterpanmoatbrae.org

Best wishes
Catherine Colwell

Hi Martin
Do you still have the menu for the Freedom Dinner on 11th December 1924 that your Grandmother attended in Dumfries?  I would be very interested to know more.

Best wishes Cate
