    1. Banville is good, but not one of my top 100.

    2. Oh do go on and share your "top 100" names, from the top... Might keep you going for another 100 posts.

    3. Oh and what about spraying your venom somewhere else, dear Andrew? Getting old, grumpy and miserable, eh?

    4. Such an odd comment that Sean. I am puzzled.

    5. My fuse was a little short yesterday, Andrew. In case I have taken your words the wrong way: Sorry. And sláinte!

    6. I still cannot understand the response to a perfectly innocent suggestion, even with no fuse; but it typifies why I hardly ever comment anywhere these days, and certainly avoid so called social media completely. I shall quietly exit, stage left...

    7. Now you would be exaggerating, Andrew. Just take it as I wrote. I seem to have been misinterpreting your words. Such things sometimes happen. The peace of the night upon you and me. ;-)

  2. Com saps, m'agrada la novel·la negra, però he de confessar que no el conec.🤔

    Aferradetes, Sean.

    1. I see parts of his work has been translated into Catalan, though. So you might give him a try, Paula.
