Had to smile today when I discovered my late much loved father has been included in the 2012 edition of the Guinness Book Of World Records.

Way To Go Dad, Bloody Marvelous. Wish you were alive to see this.

Glad to see you back, Simon

Yes, I've long realized that your father's output exceeded Fleming's own. I'm glad to see that accomplishment officially recognized.

Great news. I enjoyed reading his entire series of Bond books immensely. Truth be told, it was those books that introduced me to the literary Bond. Without your father's books, and the enjoyment that they brought me, I am not sure I would have ever discovered the original Fleming books.
