Cousins Kevin and Maxine of The Repairman Cometh took us at our word and raised a glass (or two) when they heard the news about the book. We laughed so hard at Kevin's note we decided to share it here (well, most of it), our first "guest blogger," so to speak.I've poked around in the piggy bank with my knife and dug out some coppers so I can pre-order my hot-off-the-press copy of A Yank Back to England! Well done--the longest book I ever wrote was a thousand lines at school. Delivery is estimated 8th Feb in UK, do tell the publicist to get out the ol'caxton press and bang out some early copies...
We've just recently returned from a two-week holiday caravan rally in the Vendee, France. A long drive but well worth it. We've flogged our holiday stories to death but have heard there's some new victims across the pond... My French is much improved: "Un beer pretty darn quick'o!"
Lots of love to all (said in my deep straight voice),
Kev & Max

Funny, I just learned about the Caxton press today as a matter of fact. Ordinarily I would say that your cousins look far too happy to be English, but then I spotted the drink in hand and read they just came back from holiday. Still, a lovely gesture.
Looking forward to the release. Congrats
Smitten--actually Kevin is always happy and great fun to be around, quite nice really! So pleased we reconnected after 20+ years!
Eternally Distracted--thank you very much!
I knew it! A book was in the works! Will look out for it for sure.
I bet you had lots of laughs if the note is any indicator at all! So fun!
(And I can't wait for the release either!)
