Summer has started

It's June, the garden is in its mad state, and I'm getting a bit nervous about timescales for this book. The big Oxford Fair is at the start of November and it must be ready for then. I damaged my back before last Christmas and only now am I ready to pick up a ream of paper or a galley of type again. Let's hope the whole mechanism lasts!

David Chambers and I finalised the text a while back and after much checking and rechecking it went to Harry McIntosh for setting on his Mactronic system. The fun begins.
