Dedicated Pansyfan, Alan, decided to take Perking the Pansies on a grand book tour of Charlemagne’s old domain. He flashed my inane witterings at the fragrant French, waffling Belgians and orderly Germans. Have I seen sales soar among our continental cousins as they rush to empty the virtual shelves of the best expat book to come out of Turkey since the Fall of Constantinople? Who knows? Not me. I won’t get the sales figures for six months. In the meantime, our local Waterstone’s here in old Norwich is stocking the book. I’ll drink to that.
Thank you, Alan. You are a pansy star!
Perking the Pansies 
Love the term ‘PansyFan’ and Alan taking PtP on a European Tour. Clearly the height of sophistication!

As opposed to fansipan (the highest mountain in Indochina) or frangipane (Liam’s mother’s favourite cake). 🙂

I suppose you could also pop your kindle on the dashboard but it wouldn’t be the same and would probably melt in sun. I could always send you a signed copy!

Wow, we reckon you should go into Waterstones in Norwich, introduce yourself and do a book signing. Get those locals queueing!! 🙂 Congrats.

I’m just wondering what the connection with your book and a chocolate eclair is. No, on second thoughts don’t answer 🙂
