Have been seriously out of touch working on my latest Rose McQuinn crime, The Balmoral Incident, set in 1905 and oddly enough begun long before I knew about the MBE which I received at the Palace from the Duke of Cambridge who chatted to me about my books.
A great day and an exciting adventure shared by my two sons, Chris, Kevin and wife Patti. Now I am enjoying some time in Brighton, my second home, then back to Edinburgh - next book, please!
