Ring Butler and Tanner to see whether they want the proofs back (with no changes – I so hope I’m right about that!) – they do. Go to the post office to send them off. Have a day of going all over London including lunch with a bookseller to talk about self-publishing and ending up at the launch at the Traveller’s Club of the reissue by IB Tauris of Gerald de Gaury’s book Three Kings in Baghdad.
