Love the Bibel but...

Post: # 95558Post mrsflibble »

love the book, it's great. I especially like the tips on how to build a coldframe... And I don't wish to sound ungrateful, infact I'm over te moon to get a mention...

BUT my dear, darling long-haired twins, there are TWO 'L's in Flibble.

In the good old times you could have blamed the type setter! :mrgreen:


I could, of course, also have said - we all must make sacrifices. Isn't one L enough for anybody? See, I even make do without one at all! :wink:

Well, some of the names I wanted to get mentioned somehow got lost on an email on the way to Dave. Hmm, not blaming Dave. - actually I am.

Besides all the rest of the book was checked for spellings the acknowledgments bit was the only bit that we could run riot with our anarcisitc spellings.

I was mainly concerned that someone should have been credited for something that was theirs, not mine. After having a look around the forum, I've found the recipe predates me joining the forum in April 06. But it's not clear who first mentioned it.

I'm not sure about the bread recipe—I tinker with and change my bread recipes constantly. The rye, wholemeal, plain flour mix is the sort of thing I'd do, though.

I'm not really bothered, though, so don't worry. (Except, I do not put ginger in my cider. :roll: :roll: :mrgreen: )
