Cornflower is four years old today and to mark that anniversary I'm going to give a couple of readers a 'birthday present' each - one here, one over on the books site.
To enter the first draw, please just leave a comment on this post telling us which people (as many as you like and real ones, though not necessarily still alive) you'd most like to have dinner with.
The prize will be a book - not a novel, but a favourite of mine nonetheless - and I'll pick the winner at random in a few days' time. Everyone is most welcome to enter so please do, and then pop over to Cornflower Books and put your name in the hat for the second book.

All your kind words about Bess have touched us, and we thank you for them. Mollie is keeping us cheerful, bearing out what Charlie Thorburn of Mordor Gundogs says about Labradors: they do everything you ask of them and they do it with a smile on their face.
