That's such a great thing to hear L! What's the L stand for and what are you up to since then? Magnus was such a wonderful editor, lucky us! And so pleased EPC is still travelling with you. xe
L is for Lola… There was only ever the one! 😉 Though sad LDN only lasted for six short months of 1987, every day of that time still remains truly unforgettable in friendship-bound & career-wise ways… 🤗
Please, please, please Elisabeth, turn these writings and your sweet paintings into a book. I'm not a one for serials - I want the whole thing in my hand, turning pages, that I can read and reread at my leisure.
Salut Elisabeth: I met you (just the once) while working at The London Daily News as Magnus's secretary/PA when you kindly inscribed beautiful October-birthday wishes to me in a just-published copy of your fine fabulous European Peasant Cookery book - which has since travelled far & wide wherever I've lived during these last 36 years... Sincere best wishes, Lx

I know, I know! But it ain't easy these days and right now I'm really enjoying the comings and goins on Substack.xxx
