I’ve deleted that post about the free ‘Green Linnet”. Amazon appear to have an uncorrected version. I’ll need to re-upload. My apologies if you find you have a poor copy. This publishing lark can be a tedious business. So easy to make a mis-step.

‘Easy to make a mis-step’?
As I once heard someone say when asked why they had made a mistake – “Do you think it’s perhaps because I’m human”?
However, here is a little poem by Piet Hein, a brilliant polymath, and a descendent of Piet Pieterszoon Hein, a 17th century Dutch naval hero, the naval connection seems fitting. It concerns errors, and may be apt:

The road to wisdom? Well, it’s plain And simple to express: Err and err and err again, but less and less and less.
Looking forward to your next book!

Thanks, Alan. Piet Hein is a new name to me – I admire polymaths (there are not enough of them). You are a polymath too -which is why I’ve enjoyed our times together. Keep well, old friend.
