Well, it's been another terrible season but, in more cheery news, I'm off work from Friday until the New Year. My wife has given me a copy of your book for my birthday this morning and I very much look forward to reading it.
A belated happy birthday to you! I really hope you enjoy the book and what a thoughtful gift from your wife! I will finish work at 5pm on Friday and be in the pub ten minutes later. And that's me done until after Christmas. I had planned to have this week off as well but I got a huge commission dropped in my lap a few days ago so I'm flat out instead. Stupid work.
Congratulations on your big commission. I plan to read the book next week when I am off work. However, I have read the foreword, and any book that starts with; "David now lives near Chester, in the northwest of England, and remains (against all common sense) a dedicated Jets fan" Means that one can tell immediately it is pitched correctly and will be well written. I have various bottles of bourbon to accompany a couple of days off to read it and am so looking forward to it. Sincere congratulations (especially as a fellow Brit) for having the knowledge, bravery and capability to write the book and publish it. You should be very proud. We have not met, but I am delighted for you. I sincerely hope it makes you decent money and establishes your reputation as an author. What a great way to end the year.
Thank you, I hope you get some pleasure from the book. It’s a shame it isn’t the stirring story of a thrilling Super Bowl run, but what can you do? We’re Jets fans. That kind of thing is for fans of other teams
