I realise it's over a year since I last paid any attention to what I grandly called my BLOG. A kind reader e-mailed Sri the other day and said the site as a whole seems a bit deserted. So ...
Dear Sri and Roger, Three weeks ago I was involved in a cycling accident in London when the driver of a car opened his door in front of me and I collided into it and fractured my pelvis. I have spent the last three weeks recovering from the operations to mend my pelvis and I have been passing my time watching classic food programmes on YouTube. Today I discovered your blog as a result of watching Raymond Blanc's programme on spices which featured you, cooking at your home in Wimbledon. I just wanted to thank you for introducing me to the world of Indonesian food. I am now looking forward to reading your latest book and, when I am able to venture back into my kitchen, to learning how to cook some of those wonderful dishes. I also wondered if you still gave cookery lessons on a one to one basis as I would love to learn from you. My very best wishes, Paul (written from my bed in Ashtead Hospital, Surrey 21 April 2012)
