Can you read this signature? - ID = Mike Hunter, Twists Glass

Hi,

We have this glass vase (I've attached two photos to this post) and we can't read the signature on the bottom of the vase, does anyone know what the name is please?

Thanks so much for looking.

Mike Hunter, Twists Glass.

I can't actually read it clearly, but I know the work and the artist and it's easy to work out what it says when you already know. :)

Welcome to the board.  :)
