lovely rainbow post!

I am still fighting the worst jet-lag, which means I’m working as hard as I can, but catching myself doing what the Russians call ‘pecking with the nose’. So collecting the post today helped wake me up and made me very happy: rainbow socks from my Glasgow Auntie (thank you so much, Auntie!). She is a magnificent knitter. And my own advance copy of Garen Ewing’s The Rainbow Orchid, complete with badges and an invite to the launch on August 3rd! Exciting!

Garen’s going to have work from the book on exhibition at Foyles Bookshop on Charing Cross Road (which is always a very welcome destination anyway). And my name’s on the back of the book, along with Neill Cameron and Bryan Talbot, even though I didn’t do any of the work. Because there’s a lot of work in that book, you will be amazed.
