Billy! You and your family should take a nice trip to Oahu Hawaii. You look like you need a great vacation. Head over to Waikiki and relax In the beautiful Hawaiian atmosphere and shopping there. Then try to get a reservation to a Friday luau event from any of the vendors. You have been working hard you should take a great vacation to paradise.

Any museum conservator would love to see them in person. (If possible, keep that room pitch dark.) They will add immeasurable richness to the restoration.

As an artist, I really enjoyed this exchange between, Michael and Billy. There just isn't enough appreciation of the old art and craft works in the world. So much of what we take for granted in our modern world, such as rolls of wallpapers, ceramic tiles or even the simple pencil are creations of a bygone age that we utilise in some form or other today.

What a great Idea Billy, Michael could do a class - conservation is a life long learning experience and they could learn from him and he in turn might learn from them. They could do trips together to artisan places to learn even more. Not that your brother isn't busy enough with his cottage, green house, Chateau Kitchen, Decorating Chateau Bedrooms for guests, sealing the Terrace and making preparations for the Chapel Ceiling.. He might have time to teach a class or two if Mortimer behaves and doesn't have Michael in with the cows lol You are all so talented and a pleasure to watch!

Michael shied away, but Billy had a great idea. A large room in the convent built for Michael to teach others how to conserve the old wallpapers. Michael has a lot of knowledge he can share - he needs to share! - with others to help perpetuate the conservation of historic things. Many people want to do it but don’t know how to go about it and Michael is a wealth of information on many different historical topics. You are a very interesting person, Michael, and others would be lucky to learn from you.

Those old papers are amazing. I hope you can get reproductions of them all and put them in different rooms. I also hope you restore the bits and put them in the library display cases. I also think it would be absolutely fabulous for you to have a 'restoration' workshop with possibly more than one room and invite in artisans who do restoration work on other antiques as well. As for the antique wall papers, once you get a recreation going, there might be people who would be interested in buying samples or even enough to do full rooms. Those papers in the convent are fabulous!

Michael is so clever like you Billy can do anything you set your minds to all of you Pethericks are genius levels. So kind of you to do all of it most others might not. Who knows if you figured out where it comes from and manage to reproduce them as wallpapers it might come back on trend.
