I've now done most of the easy edits, so I think I now need to send an email asking what to do with the rest. I also need to find a different word for 'body-warmer' that will make sense to UK and US readers.

Which book did you spot? Ihave two on my To Read pile, one of which Mum wants back!

No idea. Just had a picture of her on the front and 'Deborah Devonshire'.
