Arrived at the Grosvenor House Hotel last Wednesday evening to find it so packed that there were tables on the balcony. 1,100 people turned out for Andrew Flintoff's final benefit dinner in London, to wish him good luck for the forthcoming tour of Australia. This is the third auction I've done for Freddie, and this one raised £220,000, from which his nominated charities - Kirsty's Appeal, The Lord's Taverners, Leukaemia Research and CHASE - the Ben Hollioake Fund, all benefitted.
Gaby Logan hosted the evening, which also featured Lawrence Dallaglio, Les Ferdinand, Will Greenwood, Mark Butcher and many other sporting personalities, who all came to support the England captain.
Freddie looks to me as if he's lost about a stone in weight, and he assured all those present that he's been in the gym and the nets on a regular basis, and can't wait to have a go at the Australians. We all wish him and the team well.

I received your book via the Reader's Digest Assn. with four short stories inside,(Never heard of you before Nov 27th)with False Impression being one of them.So I picked up the book and started reading, and got involved in the story, especially Fenston (hated him) and Anna (loved her)But how do you get your characters to have such authenticity in 162 pages?
I would like to buy another one of your novels, but which one is next in line?
Carol - many thanks for your comments. I've written twelve novels, and perhaps you should read 'Kane and Abel' next, follow this with the sequel, 'The Prodigal Daughter', then 'Shall We Tell the President'. Happy reading, and Merry Christmas.
