the age of six I wanted to be a cook.
At seven I wanted to be Napoleon.
And my ambition has been growing steadily ever since.

Comments from
guests who visited the Dali Museum June 2007...
"Brilliant!
Exceeded my expectations" Ros - London
"Fantastic.
Much better than I anticipated. Need to go back and see more !!"
Jane, Cardiff
"Excellent
guide, thorough knowledge which made the morning very interesting"
Brian, Winchester
"Fascinating
- I actually grew to understand and like Dali a lot more as a result"
Jackie, London
"Guide =
Excellent" Carole, Doncaster
"I cannot imagine a more delightful tour guide than Lee, my guide around Dali country. It was exactly like being with a knowledgeable friend, not a moment of boringness (to which I am intensely allergic), nor a moment of impatience, so I could take the pictures I needed for my forthcoming book on Dali (Critical Lives, Reaktion Books). AND this was a last-minute booking, so it could have gone terribly wrong. That it went so wonderfully right makes me eager to recommend 7Dayonder, which I do whole-heartedly."
