Between November 2011 to January 2025, I have been lucky enough to have well over forty letters published in the Financial Times, as well as a 5 page colour feature in HTSI magazine regarding my archive of China street photographs of 1986.

On the whole, the subjects of my letters related to articles (and on occasions, other letters) in the Financial Times and range from random musings - such as why the late Lee Kwan Yew didn't like roundabouts to the eccentricities of my former boss at Euromoney, the late Padraic Fallon - with one or two unremarkable meetings with remarkable people mixing in there, including my coffee-spilling encounter on the western link train service from Camden to Richmond with the late Dr Jonathan Miller. I have not recirculated them as a rule, believing that if you are not a part of the FT community, then you would not be really very interested anyway.  But, as I have missed one or two along the way myself (there's a difference apparently from the international to the Asian or Middle East editions) -  here are most of them gathered together for the first time.  Enjoy!"
