x'mas has come early



got a package from UK today. guess what?


Lord Archer found time, in between correcting proofs for his latest novel & shuttling from conducting fund-raising auctions to attending theatrical plays (read here), to autograph for me a copy of the revised version of Shall We Tell The President?


you've made my day, your Lordship!

i'd also like to extend sincere appreciation to his PA, Ms Alison Prince, for sending the paperback across 8 time zones, & a special mention of Iml for 1st directing me to Jeffrey's blog.

blessed christmas, one & all!
