Actually I did not mix up my lists (for once)

brit posies could share in this moving experience

'The Gift' a tome available in good bookshops
(not sure about north of London though?)
Geraldine anyway what are you doing up at 00-38 ?
one should be getting beauty sleep
not be out on the tiles of poetry
cheers to all Patrick
