Niagara This Week has a new reporter, so perhaps he can give a new article a go. I know you will be or already have been contacted by The Standard which is the major paper in the region. They are planning on a story soon and another one closer to your reading. We are looking forward to your reading! Dear Terry,

I had totally forgotten about the reporter’s blunder. Niagara This Week has a new reporter, so perhaps he can give a new article a go. I know you will be or already have been contacted by The Standard which is the major paper in the region. They are planning on a story soon and another one closer to your reading.

We are looking forward to your reading!

I think hospital waiting rooms could use a few more laughs anyway. The sequel to TBLP is nearing completion. One chapter left to write. Thanks again. Many thanks for your kind words Gary.

I must admit that it went to the bottom of my reading list giving way to several much- hyped publications by better known authors. I just finished it this past week and I am recommending it to my friends and family. I read much of you book while waiting in hospital waiting rooms and my belly laughs were deemed inappropriate by my wife who sat beside me. Earlier in the year I lamented the fact that we Canadians don’t have a Barack Obama. Now I’m sorry we don’t have an Angus McLintock. Beyond the good fun I had reading The Best Laid Plans, I appreciated the insights it gave me into the workings of our parliamentary system. I couldn’t resist placing some of the current players on the hill in the skin of your fictional characters. The story could have come out of today’s news. Finally, I noted many familiar names in your acknowledgments including our former much admired MP, Paddy Torsney. Well done Terry, I look forward to your next offering.

Our most honourable senior member--a newspaper columnist & political activist-- asked for The Best Laid Plans. Our Organizer Person checked with the library and they have a copy. I did not say anything about you being Terry's godson .....but thought you might smile to know that your book will be read by at least a dozen of us in this little town of Penticton.... using the library's copy or buying it.
