Thank you so much for the book and the tea. I've just seen the first a sort of

finalish cut of the TV shirt. It's so good. Just thank you so much to doing that. It's a really lovely thing.

So we should explain to people listening that you put together a book called Dear NHS. Why don't you tell about that?

Oh, we started?

Yeah, well, I go in for a soft start.

This is the Dear NHS book, which I just received a copy of.

I haven't read yet, but I got my... a people you are asking. I mean on the front cover it says a hundred if you were to actually

count the names it would be a hundred nine but we do it's a bonus it's a bonus or it's

miss selling whatever it is.

It's a fine line.

You know what it's like?

You have to tell like all the bookshops what the book is called and we thought we'll call it

Dear NHS, a hundred stories to say thank you, and we overshot.

Presumably that's because you have to over-ask the number of people because some of them, often

people like me, don't meet deadlines and don't know how to meet deadlines.

I mean some of the people including you are quite busy and famous and important

after you can quite reasonably say no I get asked for 3,000 things a day I'm really sorry

Unfortunately slash fortunately everyone said yes I mean we put together the list as a sort of like dream team and everyone just said yes.

Paul McCartney said yes.

Joanna Lumley said yes, Ed Sheerran said yes.

All the people who were meant to say, I'm really sorry I'm Ed Sheeron, were actually,

I'd love to do this. I owe a lot to the NHS and here you go. So the fact there's too many people was a rather nice thing.
