Early, apologetic and brief

Hello all.

Thank you to those who liked and commented on “The Naming of City.” Your comments were extremely characteristic!

The book is not nearly finished, Clint. Progress is fairly steady but slow. The current title under consideration is “Naming People and Places.” What do you think?

In the meantime, I apologise that you’re not getting a proper post this week, only this thought:

I assume I’m not the only person to have noticed that your chances of winning a gold medal for Britain are greatly increased if your name is Tom? (There’s some advantage in any Biblical name, but Tom, so far, is best.)

Love from the PPI Blogger
