St George’s Day

Wednesday, 23 April, St George’s Day, is considered the birthday of William Shakespeare and it is also the anniversary of his death in 1616. Coincidently, Miguel Cervantes died on the same date. The Bard of Avon and el Principe de los Ingenios, the two most important influences on Western literature having departed, it is up to me and my blog to fill the gap.

The feedback I have received so far suggests shorter, sharper posts with more humour and less detail. Except from Simon who said it was too brief but that was because he hadn’t read it.

So, that’s your lot for today. I’m off to Pamplona tomorrow for a wine tasting.

Toodle Pip!
