I came across this article as I was reading the Oxford news online.  Ron, you haven't moved to Abingdon have you? Maybe to throw me off when I come visit in May.

Thank you Sue (Grrrgh!) lol

Honestly, it's a rubbish report and I can't belive they got it so wrong.

You are correct of course Sue we haven't moved to Abingdon and the report itself is full of mis-quotes. I telephoned the Oxford Mail reporter to get him to correct it and still it went out.

Sue, the other thing of course is that you have let the cat out of the bag and now every POE member can see that I have aged a little bit! lol

Quote from the article 'An author of ebooks on the writer'

Is there another ebook Ron ? I can only find the one on Amazon, plus the paperback.

You look to have lost weight too Smile

Hey Sue matey, you are very welcome to call in again with statements like that! lol

And Ruth you are correct, one paperback and one ebook. As for the 'lost weight' well yes I have lost over 3 stones, which is why the suit looks big on me now, but I've not lost enough to get into into either of my other two. In fact it's so hard to lose the weight that I am going to buy another suit and be done with it! lol

Goodness knows how Anna managed to lose her 6 stones. It took 2 years to do and she looks like she did 30 years ago, so well worth it, but I sit still far too long due to osteoarthritis, need new knee, policemans heel, shall I continue?
