Sally-Anne was a junior detective
But at solving cases she was the worst;
When she tried to catch the Midtown Strangler
The Midtown Strangler caught up with her first.

    You work is of the same wonderful standard as the wonderous animation of the Eliza Thornberry and your character would be a great idea for a cartoon series.
    The dark shadow and the hapless detective – the viewer is in fear for her :o) LOL
    Love the homage to Sherlock Holmes – the whole costume including mag glass.
    A def fave with your little piano player both equally as wonderous as each other.

  • Paul Compton replied

    You’re too kind, thank you endlessly : )
