Igor's parts

As part of our site we will be adding pages for the various team members, an area to discuss, laugh or remark on items of interest. An area where You (Our customer) can get to know the people "behind the flame" as it were.

Regulars of this site, our auctions on Ebay and in correspondence will know that there is another member of the Candles, Eh! team - Igor.

Igor came to us after his last master had an unfortunate disagreement with local peasants - let me just say that although he calls us Master and Mistress, this is more of a title than his position - he is a fully paid member of the team, not a slave in any form.

Recently Igor has been acheiving fame in his own right - Ebay watchers will remember the Friends episode and his brief employ with helen Hunt, below is the script of an upcoming Discovery Channel program.

(Note: Due to Igor's background and a certain typecasting of the role in hollywood, Igor is unable to pronounce the letter 'S')

Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to the Discovery Radio Channel, where tonight we are honoured to be allowed into the cellars at Candles Eh! to meet with Igor the world renown Puck Packer.

"Good Evening Igor"
