APOLOGIES FOR MISS MxRGxNxTA LAxKx

I didn't mean to get them published in book form, but

People don't take the Observer seriously.

One doesn't want to be mistaken for a journalist, does one?

Journalism pays, I'm afraid.

I do want to show people I'm not a Socialist.

Why shouldn't a Liberal have feelings?

It comes in very handy for a Christnias present.

The publishers begged me.

My aunt thought they were terribly funny at the time.

David thought it would be a good thing.

I can't write a best-seller every year.

The ICA were so kind.

It all runs in the family.

The critics were just sweet.

None of my friends will think they arc me.

They are only a jeu d'esprit.

After all, why shouldn't 1?
