Thank you gentlemen. I enjoyed being on your podcast although I suspect I rabbitted on a bit much (I do!). When I was listening to it I thought “Blimey, that guy can talk the hind legs off a donkey!”…”Oh, it’s me!” I hope that one of your listeners wins the book set on my blog for counting those potatoes and I look forward to getting together in the flesh some time to raise a glass or two (no imo shochu though). Thanks!

Patrick - It was a great pleasure having you on. And, I got my Potato Pals books this week. I liked them so much, that I ordered series two as well. They’ve been a big success with the classes so far.
