Happy Birthday Patrick..at least it must be your birthday by now. Which bottle did you receive?
ReplyDeleteSeriously-- in the main, I associate you with Proust. That's why you &or your scribe are forgiven for misspelling Jane Austen's name, below.
I will buy your wine book, assuming that Jane's name is correctly spelled therein (Marcel wouldn't like it if it weren't). Health & happiness to you!
You are quite correct. Unfortunately, after half-an-hour futilely hunting around the blog, I cannot find how to edit/ correct my horrible mistake. But don't worry, she is correctly spelled in the actual book.
