having some colour on this one.

    BiTS:  If you've got a vinyl album, you've got space for big liner notes. So who's doing
    that?


    FL:  Well, Alice Armstrong is doing all the artwork for the cover.

    BiTS:  Wow!

    FL:    She's  a  very  good  graphic  designer.  She's  designed  several  things  for  us,

                                                                 including  the  “Time  To  Fly”  album
                                                                 cover with the birds. She did that one.
                                                                 But  yeah,  she's  a  very  good  graphic

                                                                 designer. So she's doing the cover art
                                                                 and  also  a  booklet,  a  lyric  booklet,
                                                                 which  has  all  the  details  and  some

                                                                 photographs and so on.

                                                                 BiTS:  The booklet suggests that you're
                                                                 having CDs as well.


                                                                 FL:  Yes, there'll be a booklet with the
                                                                 album as well, with the vinyl.

                                                                 BiTS:  Oh, wonderful.


                                                                 FL:    But  also  with  the  CDs  as  well.
                                                                 Obviously,  the  CD  one  will  be  more
                                                                 pages [chuckles], but yeah.


                                                                 BiTS:  And what are your plans for any
                                                                 financial benefit that you get from this?
                                                                 What's happening to the money?


                       Alice Armstrong                           FL:  The money is going directly to the
                                                                 Royal Surrey County Hospital, which is

                                                                 the hospital where Matt was cared for.

                                                                 BiTS:  How wonderful.

    FL:  And it's going directly to the cancer unit as well. We've asked for it to go straight
    to them rather than just into the general pond of the hospital charity.


    BiTS:  That's absolutely great. Congratulations on doing this. I think it's sensational.
    But, please tell me something about your feelings about it, Fiona. It must be terribly
    difficult for you. When it's your son that's passed away, all this adulation is never

    going to compensate for your loss.

    FL:  No, it never will. But I think this has helped us get through the last 12 months,
    really, having this little project. I say little, it's turned into quite a monster project,

    really. But it's kept me out of mischief really, and it's allowed us to have something
