Philip Hensher fails to make the Book festival due to an " accident " but Patrick Gale kindly agrees to have his phtograph taken with me instead . What more can I say ?
Janet Street Poster ( woops Porter ) surpasses herself with an hour of straight ranting , reminding me of delicious little words like " bilge " and interestingly , the useful " bitch " , a word I rarely employ but when she uses it to describe a woman in an overall closing up a tea shop at four thirty pm with glee just as Janet is steaming up the country market town in search of a scone and pot of tea after a hard day's walking in the Northumbian hills , hey , this is the word used to perfection .
I must away now to hear about the Bloodaxe poets .....perhaps a picture of my sister with an axe will be this afternoons offering . .

Fabulous picture...and judging by those teeth, Patrick is honoured to have his photograph taken with you..
I confess I cant help clicking on the picture just to see these teeth ....he does look very cheesy indeed ... just as I was feeling ....
Did someone tell you to say cheeeeeese before they snapped the shot? Nice picture I would say. :)
No , but Patrick did say , I'm going to pull a cheesy face now .... and he did ...
