Thank you so much for describing my C.W. site as "Wilson by some who knows what he's talking about" - flattering indeed! I'm so glad you looked at the site and am overjoyed that you used it as a counterbalance to the spiteful piece at The Guardian. That publication was also responsible for one of the most vicious reviews of Mr Wilson's memoirs, Dreaming to Some Purpose. Never mind though; it was due to that review that I decided to start the site [originally at gerardsorme.com]. So positivity can come out of negativity. I enjoyed your publications The Books in My Life & Shadowlands etc, so it's rather like the wheel has come full circle with the above pieces! This is as good as Colin himself describing my site as "fascinating", so thanks again - I'm flattered. Very Best Regards Phil Coulthard, Scotland. Dear Frank,
