Very nice review in TV Choice magazine this week on my book "The Tuesday Empire". Only problem is they have put some other authors photo in, instead of mine. I have hair and I don't wear glasses. Oh well, the thought was there.

Roll of thunder around today on the Costa del Sol, but quite a bit cooler which is a welcome relief at this time of year.

One of my favourite people June Whitfield, the actress, had a rose named after her, the catalogue described it as 'superb for bedding, best up against the wall'.

Just been reading The Eastern Daily Press, a Norwich daily paper. It reminded me that there are some very strange place and street names in Norfolk. Such as, 'Little Snoring', and 'Great Snoring', two smallish villages. Near where I live there is a lane called (at this point stop the children reading) 'Sluts Hole Lane'. I kid you not!

I have to go to Norfolk soon to do some talks in libraries about my books. I think I shall start my speeches like this, "As Henry VIII said to his wives, "I won't keep you long".
