Hi Janet,Thank you so much for your message and very interesting to hear about your family being in colonial service. Thank you for putting my book on your reading list. I'm sure you will enjoy reading it, as there is quite a lot about expat life. I would really love to get my first celebrity author review. Your books look very interesting and I will definitely be reading one of your books soon. What with you contacting me, and having an article in the local paper, it's been a good day! All the best, Lucy
Hi Lucyjust been having a look at your memoir on Amazon - sounds really interesting. As the grand-daughter of an ex-pat Scot who made his career in the colonial service in India between the wars (in forestry) and as my mother lived there until she was eight (and was then sent back home to school in Edinburgh) I can relate somewhat to your family story!
Will put it on my reading list.
All the best
Janet (MacLeod Trotter)
