Who has been very ill in the South of France, sadly. I hope he's
recovering
because he's one of the funniest writers around.

I didn't know that. I've got loads of his books "Golfing for Cats",
"Cricklewood Diet", "Lady from Stalingrad Mansions", "Bumpf" etc etc.
He also appeared regularly on the "News Quiz" on Radio 4. He also
championed the cause of smoking I believe, against the anti-smoking
zealots, and I hope the two aren't related. i.e. him being a heavy smoker.


His daughter wrote about it recently in one of the Sundays, I think. I'm
not sure that they've found out just what is wrong with him, yet.
