I already have one signed by you – I got it at an event in Newcastle last year – but I will get one for my Gran who is sitting on the fence a bit at the moment! Used the dreaded ‘Lib dem’ words the other day!! Don;t worry we’ll get her back

I met you on Wigmore Street last Friday night. You are much more attractive than I expected. It was a pleasure to chat to you. I admire your strength of character and balls of steel. I haven’t yet finished your book The Blair Years but have enjoyed it so far. Hope Mr B was in good form on Friday night! Cheers CB
