You might like to visit my friend and fellow author Sam Jordison’s blog, and not just because he has written fondly on it of my book Help! I’m Turning Into My Dad! Incidentally, that very book has today gone for its first reprint, a mere 25 days after publication. How joyful. I had fun promoting it on BBC Radio London yesterday. Paul Ross kept calling me “Chris”, so I called him “Jonathan”. He got my name right after that.

Another blog post I have enjoyed recently – and one that has nothing to do with me or my books – is this one by the great Melanie Phillips. Although Melanie and I would probably find plenty to disagree on, she is always 100 per cent spot-on on issues such as Israel, Islamism, terror and national security. Given that those sorts of issues dwarf any others in importance, I count myself as a Melanie fan. Long may she blog.
