I love your blog & your review of Hedgehog, which I was reading at the time. But I’d thought you were on holiday from blogging so I was surprised and delighted to see you’re back at. And as a serial contest loser, I’ll enter your contest.

Thank you Tom! I’m sorry to say you weren’t the winner this time … I’m sort of back from holiday, sort of still on it. I’m making it up as I go along, I suppose.
