Same here. Much looking to the Borders Books Festival, to chatting with Gavin about my book, catching up with @helenebismarck.bsky.social and, especially, reading her book. Her analysis of the UK as a candid friend who knows us very well and is also a sharp observer will be fascinating. Can’t wait!

Yes - Peace Makers is excellent by @lordrickettsp.bsky.social - as is Fantastic Kingdom by @helenebismarck.bsky.social -
I look forward to discussing both books with the authors at Borders Book Festival in Melrose next week
Gavin Esler
Look what just arrived in the post. The new book by former PUS and head of the foreign office @lordrickettsp.bsky.social .
Much looking forward to this!
And looking forward to seeing the author at the Borders Book Festival in Melrose next week. @gavinesler.bsky.social
