A big thank you, a presentation and some book news

Dear all

Both me and Mlle de Villeneuve would like to thank you for contributing to the success of our auction. The winners have received manuscript and drawing by now and are very happy with our work. Which, of course, makes us happy!

The secretary of the Lions Club in Morpeth has kindly provided us with a presentation showing the extend of the damage. It’s a *.pps and has been virus-checked, so feel free to click (hosted on my personal website).

As you can tell, the money really went where it’s needed. If you’d like to make a donation to the floods fund as well, you should now head to the

WEBSITE OF THE MORPETH LIONS CLUB

for further information. You’ll be helping people who help themselves and each other. That’s a rare thing to find these days. Hat tip from our part to the people of Morpeth, and kudos to you, dear friends, for your generosity.

I’ve put quill and ink aside and returned to my trusted friend with the keyboard. “The Radiant Boy” will be out soon, and there are an estimated 4093468049684906830 edits for “The Purser, The Surgeon, The Captain And His Lieutenant” waiting for me.

Oh, and before I forget: Readers of “Lieutenant Samuel Blackwood (deceased)” might be glad to hear that Mr. Leigh and Mr. Meadows will return next year for one more adventure.
