"Dear Peter Lloyd,
Many thanks for your letter. I am very complimented that you should have drawn my portrait, but the people who sign portraits are the artists and not the sitters - and I would not wish people to think that I was claiming to be such a skilled artist. So I release your drawing herewith - and expect you to sign it.
Best wishes
David Attenborough"
Thanks Sir David!
(He even posted it back himself, writing out my address on the tube!)
(Ps. I did re-sign it myself in the centre, as per Sir David's wishes).
