Karen_Ian Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 Hi,I just wanted to share our pleasure with you...my partner has written a book (french linked) and if you read the link below (about half way down the page look for the name Ian Andrews) Simon Hoggart mentioned it in the Guardian this weekend! WOW!http://politics.guardian.co.uk/columnist/story/0,,1962240,00.htmlKaren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tresco Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 That's some achievement Karen. I really admire people who can do all that cunning wordplay. Your OH must be a bright spark in two languages.[:)]How did you find out Mr Hoggart had mentioned the book?I've made it into a link to make it easier to view.http://politics.guardian.co.uk/columnist/story/0,,1962240,00.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooperlola Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 Good stuff, and a huge compliment coming from that particular quarter - a writer I have admired for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fay Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 It looks a hoot, very clever. Matt Lucas took its predecessor, The Meaning of Liffe, as his 'desert island book' the other week. Maybe your fella should send him a copy of Liffré? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karen_Ian Posted December 4, 2006 Author Share Posted December 4, 2006 Thanks for all the comments - and the better link!Yes, I agree Simon Hoggart is a good writer and as the Sat guardian was always a 'treat' for us (no sunday papers for us!) we still read it on line and so spotted it ourselves. Amazingly we'd only sent it to him last Mon!And a copy went off to Matt Lucas this morning! Great minds eh?Thanks again. I'm really delighted for him.

WJT Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 Well done, very exciting for you both! The book sounds very funny and interesting and by the way, Chrisspp told me what left the funny droppings on our doorstep when we arrive but didn't tell me they were called "Miradous".[:D] I am sure the book will do very well. Try to keep us posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
