And congrats, too, to you,/u>, for getting such a fine notice in TES. I've seen the name of John Russell Taylor here and there as a reviewer but don't know his books, A stout fellow. Why don't you send him a note ? (NOT a Treasury one - you know what I mean...) me Too late for me to wish Jack godspeed in Nigeria... Fox Productions roll on,and still another has come off the xxxxxx assembly line called "Midwinter, W.11"(no 3 day week in that>/u> factory). I accept your suggested deletion in "Knowing and Not Knowing". My old friend in Belfast,Denis Ireland,always says the Ulster writer has to guard against a characteristic fault - not knowing that the job is finished and putting in a bit more to make sure. He's right. I'll think about "shitty" in the Haiku. Roy writes - a characteristic letter. "McF's Worst Xmas" - "I writes most weekends. Pomes maturing with the plentiful dung." "I am chary about 2 many words. I am parsimonious because I am generous. My words spill and I gather them up like turds and weewee and put them away and hoard another day." "Have they hanged Fred behind our backs ? because I haven't heard hint or xxxxxx hilt of him since he was arraigned." (hint or hilt - i.e. news). Very entertaining. But I think Roy has been having a pretty bad time one way and another. Nice letter today from Peter Fallon,along with 3 Gallery Press booklets (one by Pearse Hutchinson). Well produced - 2 of the 3 with the assistance of the Arts Council of Ireland (i;e. the Dublin- based one) which means that Fallon has some pull with the Establish- ment. Says he will look me up when in London. And here I must end - Fox,TLS,students etc. are calling. Love to you both - Robert P.S. No payment from B+B for Nov. or Dec. contributions, despite letters and phone calls! Text Saturday, August 20, 2016 - 11:10
